Shari’s "Listen, See, and Feel" Approach

What to expect

Shari’s "Listen, See, and Feel" Approach

During the first consultation, Shari provides a dedicated one-on-one experience. She begins by listening you as you tell her about your animal’s history, including diet, exercise, environment, and any behavioral changes you’ve observed.

Gait Analysis

Shari will perform or guide you through a series of movements to assess your animal’s mobility:

DOGS

Walking patterns, circles, and transitions (sit/stand/lay down)

CATS

Using toys or treats to observe natural movement and posture.

HORSES

Groundwork assessments including walking lines, circles, and backing up.

Hands On

She will perform a "hands-on" check if in person, or she will guide you as you feel your animal to check for heat, tension, tenderness, texture of the soft tissue and range of motion of their legs and neck.

Measurements

Shari will take specific measurements for:

Accurate Sizing

Essential for fitting harnesses, therapy wraps, or post-surgical recovery suits.

Body Condition Tracking

Helps in monitoring weight loss or muscle gain by tracking changes in the chest, waist, and limb circumference.

Holistic Suggestions

Following the assessment, Shari provides specific suggestions that may include:

Diet and supplements
Homework:  Stretching, massage, and groundwork exercises.
Additional simple, actionable changes to improve daily life.

Specialized Support

Injury & Surgery

Whether preparing for or recovering from surgery, Shari offers holistic strategies to support efficient healing and practical tips for mobility (e.g., helping a large dog navigate stairs post-op).

End-of-Life Care

Looking at and understanding quality-of-life decisions is a deeply personal and emotional experience. Shari provides a compassionate, supportive space to help you assess your animal's needs and navigate these difficult emotions with peace of mind.
