I was walking along the beach this afternoon with the dogs and followed a lovely chocolate Lab.
These were his imprints:
The joy of being a physio is that I can't switch off from watching and observing. Whether it be how humans stand in a cue, the shape of their buttocks (not for a weird reason but it tells me what their back is like... of course!) and all our 4 legged friends moving
Movement tells us so much. Animals are very body aware and have 4 feet to distribute their weight.
This lovely labrador was multi-limb lame and you can tell by his prints that he is not spaced evenly.
So when you are next on the beach with your friend (human or animal) - have a look back at your footprints and see what that tells you!
I will be running a course with Helen (Animal Physio from Sydney) in Melbourne next Feb regarding canine conformation and gait - got me thinking today on my stroll.
Happy beaching!!
Cheers
