CANINE CASE STUDY GUIDELINES
Thank you for wanting to complete the course for Canine MSTR®.
Just one more task to complete - your case studies!!!
Details
These guidelines will help you in preparing your case studies to complete your MSTR® for Dogs coursework.
The following details should be included:
-
Breed
-
Age and Sex – Neutered/Spayed or Intact
-
Is the dog a family pet and/or do agility training, sports, etc. ?
-
Description of issue as described by owner
-
Assessment technique and result of assessment
-
Does the scar affect the dog in daily life (range of mobility, pain or discomfort)
-
Include pre treatment assessment informationInclude post treatment assessment information
-
Photographs may be included if the scar is visible and you have a signed agreement with the pet owner to share
-
Did the dog respond in a negative or positive way to treatment and what did that look like?
-
In what ways has the treatment improved the animal (ROM, increased energy)?
-
In what way has the treatment changed the animals demeanour?
Apart from the above information you are free to construct and present your studies in as creative and interesting a way as you choose. Videos, photos etc. are all welcome as long as they show a clear improvement.
On the Canine student resource page you will find a PDF ‘Pre and Post Treatment Evaluation Form’ for you to use. This is NOT a case study form. It is intended to help you gather information about a dog as you proceed through your treatments. It may be included as part of your case study presentation.
When you are ready submit your case studies to your Canine MSTR® Instructor, Frances Carter. (You should have her email address already.)
