Treating Dehydration
I'd been away for the weekend learning a new healing technique called Animal Links. When I got home, my fifteen year-old Golden Retriever, Chappie, was lying on his side panting. I raised some of his skin and it stayed in place, indicating that Chappie was dehydrated.
Taking a small piece of tissue and running it under the tap, and then placing it on Chappie's back above where his navel might be, I tapped him gently on the head and between the shoulder blades. This technique, I had been taught that weekend, effects immediate rehydration. It works for humans, too - place the wet tissue in your belly button and tap the head and sternum. Migraine is often caused by dehydration, so this technique is often effective here, too.
Chappie was up within minutes, chasing rabbit smells around the garden.
