June
N2PAWS is sponsoring a TTouch weekend workshop with one of the TTouch program instructors: Kathy Cascade. Kathy is a graduate of the first TTouch certification course given in 1996. She has a creative and humorous teaching style, making for a very fun class :). Kathy is a licensed physical therapist with extensive experience in neurological disorders and rehabilitation. This experience translates very effectively into the TTouch world of working with animals. Workshop info:

Also, in June is an Introduction to TTouch, 5-day course in St.
Louis (6/25 – 6/29). It is the introductory course that will provide
you an overview of the TTouch techniques and tools. It also
qualifies as the first class in the 2-year certification program. If
you are interested in taking this course, you may register at
www.ttouch.com, code: PAHEMO.
Reminder: If your dog is afraid of fireworks, start using that body wrap or t-shirt in June so that he/she gets used to it before the 4th of July. Also, circle touches all over the body will help calm and relax the nervous system.
