K9 Therapy Hub is an immersive experience of micro, bitesize, mini and short clinical CPD courses, templates and resources, designed to transform your canine practice with active support.
Let me ask you a few questions…
- Are you feeling pressure or limited in your clinical practice and not sure WHY?
- Do you believe that you need to progress your skills but don’t know how to get there?
- Are you frustrated by the lack of specific high quality clinical CPD courses for therapists?
- Are you struggling to find the time due to your workload to fulfill your professional CPD requirements?
- Would you like to take a leap forward in advancing your clinical skills, but feel that the lack of relevant canine clinical courses is holding you back?
Don’t worry! You’re not alone.
This is exactly why we created the
K9 Therapy Hub
I love the “OneShot videos” demonstrating therapeutic techniques and appreciate the articles, containing pertinent scientific studies.
This helps me solidify my knowledge and grow my “clinical skill-set” so I can make a positive impact on the lives of my canine clients and their owners.
To be able to find so many exciting and varied topics in one place for your CPD requirements is so helpful.
It also makes it really easy to be able to refer back and find sound clinical reasoning and helpful clinical tips.
Being in touch with Barb through booked calls makes it feel like a real community!
The layout is very user friendly and I can genuinely say that it has had a positive impact on my clinical practice. I would highly recommend it to everyone!
In the K9 Therapy Hub you’ll find:
200+ accredited CPD hours divided into over 45 CPD courses for you to choose from, providing outstanding CPD activities to meet your professional requirements and advance your skills.
🐾 Micro courses [1 CPD hour]
🐾 Bitesize courses [2 CPD hours]
🐾 Mini courses [4 CPD hours]
🐾 Short courses [6 CPD hours]
These CPD courses are grouped into a number of netflix style Therapeutic Tracks to help you find a course to study and fit your specific needs. “There is always something new to learn.”
BUT THAT’S NOT ALL!

We embrace a practice ethos of working with each dog and to gain their active consent. Our aim is to provide the best service for the wonderful dogs in our professional care. Utilising clinically reasoned assessment and treatment techniques to optimise each dog’s mobility and improve their quality of life, is the most rewarding job EVER!
All our accredited CPD courses are individually certificated and reflect our dog focused practice ethos. This dovetails seamlessly with our ongoing commitment to proactively support therapists on their professional career journey, whether new to the canine industry, an established practitioner or an advanced specialist.
This Hub enables you to learn and refresh at your own speed and to delve deeper into the topics of your interest. It’s affordable and if you’re like me, being relaxed and comfy assists me to achieve an enriched learning pathway that relates to my clinical practice.
So, sign up, get comfy and be ready to learn from this amazing resource.
I also can contact Barbara if I am struggling or need support. Barbara always makes me feel relaxed and learning is easy.
K9HS cares about helping me succeed and get the most out of my hydrotherapy knowledge and CPD.
Thank you Barbara, you are our canine hydro Guru!
They are a quick and easy time commitment and presented in a wonderful manner. I now find myself thinking back to a video as I work with a dog (“a ha!” moments).
I know my more experienced colleagues enjoy the resources too – credit to Barbara and crew for making the materials so enticing and relevant, it’s two paws up from me!

You probably have some questions like:
Why did you create the K9 Therapy Hub?
We listened to feedback from therapists worldwide who are challenged to find canine CPD from a clinical perspective. As experienced solution makers, we devised our Bitesize Canine Anatomy series and published part of this on our K9HS YouTube channel. This led to an amazing reaction and we followed through to launch our successful Canine CPD Library to support working therapists.
Its been a natural pathway to revolutionise and evolve these, offering the complete CPD clinical experience through the K9 Therapy Hub, perfect for canine therapists.
How is this different from other memberships?
We have integrated key professional elements into the site for our members. It’s tough to be at your best every moment in a clinical practice setting. We all need confidential opportunities to discuss cases, search for solutions, have access to trusted and experienced mentorship, as well as to be listened to. Our professional status and ethical choices linked to over 40 years of clinical experience is shared with our members by:
- Unlimited access to our interactive private community, sharing ideas and resources with like minded therapists
- Office hours booked for 1 to 1 professional discussions with canine specialist Barbara Houlding
- Regular new course releases and launches
The site is accessible on all devices and you select the topic, set your pace and choose when and where you wish to study. This immersive and progressive method using relevant, species specific techniques and focused on a shared practice ethos you feel is right, is a rare find.
Our multiformat style includes customised built resources, webinar events, instructional videos, downloadable PDFs, referenced information, interesting articles presented in an easy to use and with unlimited access.
