About The Knotty Doggy
Amanda Lofland, LE, Owner
I have been obsessed with dogs since I can remember so the transition from people-care to dog-care came very naturally for me. It has taken me too long to start work in the canine industries but I am so grateful for those who pushed me towards this fulfilling endeavor!
My formal training includes an undergraduate degree in Chemistry, Psychology & Business at Augsburg College in Minneapolis and I completed some advanced business classes at Harvard in 2020. I completed my Canine Massage Therapy coursework at Chicago's nationally recognized "Canis Body Works" in Illinois in 2023. I am currently studying for my NBCAAM boards and I have finished my course work for advanced therapies in Acupressure and Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy.

Trusted Retail
I have scoured the web and beyond to provide the best supplemental care to my clients! I incorporate what I can into my sessions (paw balm, anyone?) and I have curated a small supply of trusted brands.
Some examples are dehydrated meals for upset tummies, travel friendly bone broths (some with plant based protein!), freeze-dried single ingredient treats and more!
