LUPOMOVE® PUPPY – The innovative build-up and prophylaxis programme for puppies

Orthopaedic prophylaxis – for the correct growing up of the puppy, for veterinarians and laymen. Including X-ray pictures and illustrative material.
The progressive veterinarian Dr. med. vet. Patrick Blättler Monnier came to the realisation early in his professional career that not enough attention is paid to the role of prophylaxis in treatment. Based on many years of professional experience and research, he demonstrates in this work the importance of prevention in veterinary practice.
Using multimedia and concrete, practical material, Blättler Monnier shows where the blind spots in medicine lie – and how they can be addressed. With vivid videos that can be accessed via QR code, as well as training plans, medical insights and tips for every day, 

Contents
1. new scientific findings
2. introduction to orthopaedics
3. the form-function-variations (FFV)
4. the neurophysiology of movement
5. hip joint dysplasia
6. the loose hip joint, kinematics and classification AI (machine learning)
7. early diagnosis of hip dysplasia in puppies (16-20 weeks of age)
8. LupoMove® Puppy
9. the nutrition of the puppy
10. the drag training
11. cold and heat protection of puppies

We support veterinarians, dog owners, physiotherapists and everyone who spends time with dogs. With video sequences of movement patterns, x-rays and kinematic measurement protocols, medical insights are explained in a vivid and multimedia way.

Because prophylaxis works before disorders start – that’s why our prevention programme includes:

• Exercise and training programme in primary and secondary growth,
• Regulation of the quantity and quality of growth,
• Healthy and dog-friendly nutrition,
• Regulation of the immune system, metabolism and hormones,
• Prophylaxis various diseases, especially orthopedic.

NOW AVAILABLE: The new book by Dr. med. vet. Patrick Blättler Monnier!

Whether the latest developments in orthopaedic prophylaxis, nutrition and health or preventive care in different dog ages: in “LUPOMOVE® PUPPY – THE INNOVATIVE CONSTRUCTION AND PROPHYLAXE PROGRAMME FOR DOGS” Blättler Monnier shares his knowledge of veterinary medicine for dogs gained from many years of professional and research experience. Addressing both veterinarians and lay people, he presents innovative diagnostic and treatment procedures whose implementation in everyday practice is an enrichment for all parties involved. The focus is on the LupoMove® Puppy programme he developed, which, with the help of mobile gait analysis, embodies his call for a paradigm shift within veterinary medicine and the preference for non-invasiv, prophylactic treatment methods. 

The book also offers a wide range of intriguing topics for dog owners. For example, in the context of maintaining, strengthening and regaining health in dogs, the author presents evidence-based advice on the early detection of medically abnormal behaviour and appropriate therapeutic methods, as well as age- and breed-appropriate nutrition, exercise type and duration for puppies.

The book includes informative graphics, photographs and x-rays, as well as videos that can be called up via QR code, which visualise practical examples of the problems described and illustrate the topics clearly.

Soon available: Dr. med. vet. Patrick Blättler Monnier, LUPOMOVE® PUPPY

“The aim of orthopaedics is not merely to remedy emergency situations. It is designed to make an early identification of disorders of form and function, to prevent their progression and to correct them using modern therapeutic procedures.”

The plea for innovation in the field of veterinary orthopaedics, a break with outdated principles about the causes of hip and elbow dysplasia and a paradigm shift in their diagnosis form the perspective framework within which Swiss veterinarian and specialist in canine orthopaedics Dr. med. vet. Patrick Blättler Monnier’s new book LUPOMOVE® PUPPY – THE INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT AND PROPHYLAXIS PROGRAMME FOR PUPPIES sheds new light on the subject of skeletal disorders in puppies and young dogs.

Underpinned by visual examples from his own practice, the veterinary specialist addresses the question of the “right” duration of movement for puppies, the importance of prevention, early performance of functional movement diagnostics as well as targeted therapy, and presents the advantages of including biomechanics and kinematics in the field of canine orthopaedics.

The focus of the book is the promotion of a healthy anatomical and physiological development of the puppy – a goal for which Dr. Blättler Monnier presents an effective and sustainable concept: LupoMove® Puppy.

Based on many years of professional experience and research in the fields of biomechanics, kinematics and movement diagnostics, results from evidence-based studies (e.g., his own “Puppy Study”, the build-up of puppies from the 12th week of life to 15-month-old young dogs) and the application of modern technologies from interdisciplinary fields, the author presents his innovative prophylaxis programme developed specifically for this purpose. LupoMove® Puppy is designed to identify skeletal disorders at an early stage and treat them with the help of an individually designed, manual-orthopaedic and kinematically controlled build-up and training plan. At the same time, the programme supports the prevention of conditions such as hip and elbow dysplasia, osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD) and panosteitis in young dogs and promotes age-appropriate implementation of the movement and activity curve.

LUPOMOVE® PUPPY is intended not only to serve as a resource for veterinarians and those interested in medicine who wish to expand their knowledge in the field of canine orthopaedics and the diagnosis of hip dysplasia and other skeletal disorders, but also to help motivate the veterinary spirit of inquiry and innovation, to look beyond entrenched views in the veterinary field and to open oneself to the benefits of integrating new diagnostic and cross-disciplinary methods.
