Common questions

How long does recovery typically take?
Reviewers report visible progress within 5 weeks for severe spinal injuries, with ongoing improvement over months. One dog with near-total paralysis from IVDD regained full function with continued weekly sessions.
Do you treat senior dogs?
Yes. Reviews mention treating a 14-year-old Maltipoo with IVDD and a senior Pomeranian; staff tailor sessions to each dog's age and condition.
What if my dog is nervous or hard to motivate?
Staff are noted for making anxious or food-unmotivated dogs feel at ease. One review highlights therapists going "above and beyond" to help a strong-willed dog participate in exercises.
