How Do I Know If My Pet Needs Canine Rehabilitation?
|
- Has your pet had a recent, past or chronic injury, accident or trauma that may be causing pain or poor movement?
- Has your pet had a recent surgery?
- Is your pet not functioning or performing to the best of his/her ability?
- Is your pet unable to go over a jump or just get up and down the stairs?
- Has your pet developed a behavioural problem for no apparent reason?
- Does your pet have a sore back when you pet or brush them?
- Has your pet developed weakness anywhere?
If you can answer yes to any of these questions, then your pet may benefit from a canine rehabilitation assessment and treatment!
