MHERA & MSK Assessment
Together, MHERA and the KALEE MSK Assessment offer a full, integrated picture of your dog’s emotional, physical, nutritional and environmental world. This combined approach supports dogs who need gentle, attuned, whole‑being care - from movement and musculoskeletal comfort to emotional safety and relational support. It is a comprehensive view of your dog’s wellbeing and health.
What Is the MHERA & MSK Assessment?
Understanding Your Dog’s Needs for a Happier, More Contented Life
A Whole Dog View of Wellbeing
The MHERA & MSK Assessment gives you a complete picture of your dog’s emotional needs, physical comfort, and daily environment.
It’s a gentle, in depth look at what helps your dog feel safe, supported, and at ease.
MHERA: Understanding Your Dog’s Needs
MHERA explores the key areas that shape your dog’s happiness and behaviour:
• Emotional needs — safety, comfort, predictability
• Physical needs — rest, movement, sensory experiences
• Social needs — relationships, boundaries, companionship
• Environmental needs — space, enrichment, calm
• Behavioural needs — communication, coping, expression
This helps you understand why your dog behaves the way they do, and what small changes could make life easier for them.
What to Expect Your MHERA session includes:
1. A pre session questionnaire
2. A gentle discussion about your dog’s daily life
3. Clarity on the emotional or environmental reasons behind behaviour
4. Practical, achievable suggestions to support your dog
5. Optional follow on support such as botanicals or massage
KALEE Musculoskeletal Assessment
A comfort led musculoskeletal assessment that honours your dog’s pace and emotional safety.
This hands on assessment explores how your dog moves, compensates, and carries tension in their body.
What We Look At
• Movement patterns and gait
• Soft tissue and joint comfort
• Stress held in the body
• Environmental factors affecting movement
• Your dog’s natural comfort strategies
Together, MHERA + MSK give you a clear, compassionate understanding of your dog’s whole wellbeing — body, mind, and environment.
Where Sessions Take Place
Assessments are carried out in your home for comfort and safety. For very sensitive or reactive dogs, sessions can be done via Zoom or alongside your trainer/behaviourist.
