I was hoping you would see my post, Sandy! Do they make a reiki for dummies book?! LOL I would love some recommendations on books!

There is nothing more calming and relaxing to me than a simple back rub. Bayleigh has some health issues and is on a low dose of prednisone for the remainder of her life. We also brought in a new dog about a month ago and she gets grouchy and agitated by the end of the day. The other night, she was extremely grouchy and had actually went after the new dog in a not so nice way. I took her into another room and just started petting her. I ended up rubbing down her entire body. When I finally quit after about 15-20 minutes, she was so relaxed! She laid there for a while then when she did get up, she was much calmer around the new guy.

I looked on Amazon and found a ton of books on canine massage but once again, I'm not sure which to get! I would love your input!
