The dog behind the diagnosis.
An orthopaedic referral is the beginning of a conversation about the individual dog. Alongside the diagnosis and veterinary history, we consider current function, behaviour, activity and your experience of caring for them.
Our range of assessment and rehabilitation options allows different approaches to be considered within one centre. We explain why a particular environment, treatment or exercise may be proposed and how it relates to the overall plan.
Questions worth bringing
- What has your veterinary team identified and recommended?
- Which changes in movement are most noticeable to you?
- What would you like the rehabilitation assessment to help clarify?
