What is Canine Rehabilitation?


As we have seen with human rehabilitation, recoveries from injury or surgery that are guided by a rehab professional's close monitoring throughout the healing stages will suffer fewer setbacks and result in much better outcomes.

The goals of rehab are to promote optimal healing, an early return to fun and function, and to prevent the complications from disuse. The art and science of rehabilitation as provided by a credentialed professional can help the canine companion get safely back on their feet.
