Guest guest Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Page Elliott is an excellent DVD, I would also recommend going to dog shows and sitting ring side and talking to breeders and judges. most are experts in their chosen breeds and are willing to educate proper movement for their particular breed.You can go on infodog.com to find shows in your area. You can also seek out your local kennel club and find a whole room of breeders & judges who would be willing to point you in the right direction Wells CVT CCRP Subject: Dog gait and locomotionTo: VetRehab Date: Monday, March 12, 2012, 8:50 PM Hi, Can anyone recommend a good book or DVD to learn more about canine gait and locomotion biomechanically?

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Thanks for both sets of tips. I also looked at Amazon.com and they don't have the Dogs in Motion book/DVD in stock. You can order directly from the website http://www.vdh.de/dogs-in-motion.html They will ship it from overseas, and the currency conversion works out to be about $75 plus shipping. I am thinking I might order it. > > > This is the most wonderful book. > > > > http://www.vdh.de/dogs-in-motion.html > > > > > > > > I got mine at Amazon.com. :+) > > > > > > > > Ellen Goldberg BS, VMT, LVT, CVT, SRA > > > > Instructor VetMedteam, LLC > > > > Faculty Mannheimer Foundation, Inc. > > > > Director at Large & Executive Secretary > > > > International Veterinary Academy of Pain Management > > > > Veterinary Medical Technologist > > > > Surgical Research Anesthetist > > > > > > > > " The greatest evil is physical pain " > > > > Saint Augustine (354-430) Theologian > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > From: VetRehab [mailto:VetRehab ] On Behalf Of waghabpt > > Sent: Monday, March 12, 2012 8:50 PM > > To: VetRehab > > Subject: Dog gait and locomotion > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi, Can anyone recommend a good book or DVD to learn more about canine gait and locomotion biomechanically?

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Page Elliott is an excellent DVD, I would also recommend going to dog shows and sitting ring side and talking to breeders and judges. most are experts in their chosen breeds and are willing to educate proper movement for their particular breed. You can go on infodog.com to find shows in your area. You can also seek out your local kennel club and find a whole room of breeders & judges who would be willing to point you in the right direction If you want to pursue this path, you'll be much better off going to a large specialty show for your breed of choice. I've been doing dog shows for many years and find that the general level of knowledge at "all breed shows", among exhibitors as well as the majority of judges, is not what it ought to be. Very widely disparate views are held by people of equal repute in many breeds, so ask for a lot of opinions. And look for the people who aren't offering their opinions freely without request. The best mentors I've ever had were the ones I had to look for. Onofrio.com lists the shows held by this superintendent only. Infodog.com lists shows held by many different superintendents (the group who runs the shows for the kennel clubs). If I can help anyone find information about dog shows, I'm happy to help. I personally am involved in the sighthound breeds. Mercer, DVM CCRT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
