About Us
We are passionate about healing and rehabilitation. Our dedicated team of Doctors and Rehab Technicians are committed to creating a therapeutic experience for our patients and our clients alike. Our specialized care at Water4Dogs Rehabilitation Center is recognized by the AVMA and the Canine Rehabilitation Institute, as we represent the standard in comprehensive rehabilitative care.
At Water4Dogs, we take a team-oriented approach to rehabilitation and physical therapy.
Our goal is to work closely with you, your companion, and your primary veterinarian to determine what is going on, and to develop an individualized treatment plan to promote a quick, smooth recovery. We feel that if there is an emphasis on open communication and teamwork, rehabilitation will be more successful.
Depending on the specific treatment plan, a therapy session can last anywhere from 30-60 minutes and may include hydrotherapy, cold laser therapy, manual therapies, and more. Our rehabilitation recommendations usually last anywhere from 10-20 weeks depending on the specific condition(s) being addressed. Individuals are continuously reassessed, and plans are modified according to their response to therapy. Overall, our goal is to promote the health and well-being of your pet. Fortunately, at Water4Dogs, we are able to accomplish this in a relaxed, fun environment that is enjoyable for both pets and their people. We look forward to sharing our experience with you.
