I have a book on Tellington Touch and a video cassette (ok, bought it years ago) on it. Have read it and watched it.
Anyone using it? Was it helpful?

Experimented on my two fur covered sausages while watching the cassette again this morning (my last day on leave!).
They just collapsed into blobs of relaxed contentment.
Tried to do it on my big boy Marky in the backyard but could not because of the background protestations of the same two idiots. Hard for Marky to relax with his two brothers yelping at me. Will try another time.

Am really interested in the Tellington Touch- not as a job but as a fun hobby - more as free therapy for my boys....

Yes, I use the TT. I had the book & video from the library about 12 yeras ago to work on Montrose. I still use the touches, but mostly on Dylan now. In fact I was just doing the clouded leopard (?)a little while ago before I groomed him. He loved it.:SMILE:

Thanks. Other than the special touches eg clouded leopard, the racoon, the tarantula etc....(sounds like Crouching Tiger movie. Ha!) any new developments re TT that's interesting?

I haven't checked into it lately, just been using the motions that I learned then.

Here is one link, there are several more too. In case anyone is interested in reading about it.

I have heard TT is really wonderful and what better thing to do for your dogs ( or cats too!) I am going to look for a book on the subject later today and see if i can learn a few "moves" to try on my boys (corgis) and girls ( cats) - Thanks for bringing up this thread artos, i will be very interested if any other folks have tried it and see what their results are.

The link I posted explains the basic moves to do with the dog/cat.
