Happy Snoozy Friday! 🐾💤

As the weekend approaches, we’re taking a leaf out of our patients’ books… and having a little rest! 😴

After a week full of waggy tails, laser sessions, gentle stretches, and strengthening exercises, our furry friends have earned their snoozes – and so have we! Whether it’s recovering from surgery, managing arthritis, or keeping fit and mobile, physiotherapy isn’t just hard work… it’s the key to a happier, more relaxed pup.

Here’s to more tail wags, stretch sessions, and well-earned naps. 💛

Happy Friday from all of us at Vier Animal Physiotherapy!

🐾What do you mean I have to do exercises before I can have the liver paste! 🐾

Meet Kirsty, she had a TPLO and patella surgery on both hind legs a few years ago.

We started her off one weekly physio sessions and now she had physio once every 3 weeks to help maintain those stifle joints.

How adorable is she? Looking livid about the exercises though!

🐾 Say Hi to Robbie 🐶

Robbie was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and over time, his owners started to notice him struggling with stiffness and limping through his hind limbs, clear signs that his hips were deteriorating.

With a tailored physiotherapy plan, we’re working to conservatively manage his hip dysplasia – keeping him comfortable, strong, and moving for as long as possible.

✨ What does Robbie’s plan include?
💙 Controlled, low-impact exercises to strengthen his hip and core muscles.
💙 Massage and manual therapy to relieve tight muscles and discomfort.
💙 Laser therapy to help manage pain and inflammation.
💙 Home adaptations and lifestyle advice to make everyday activities easier.

Hip dysplasia can’t be cured, but with early intervention and the right physiotherapy, dogs like Robbie can enjoy a better quality of life and stay active for longer.

If you think your dog might be struggling with hip dysplasia, don’t wait – get in touch and let’s help them keep moving 🐾💛

🐶✨ Wound Healing Magic! ✨🐾

Meet Chesney, our brave little Spaniel puppy who gave his tail a bit too much wagging power! 🐕 A nasty wound on the tip of his tail just wouldn’t heal — a common issue for waggy pups, as tails are tricky spots with constant movement and poor blood supply.

But with the power of our Class 3B Laser Therapy, Chesney’s tail is now fully healed! 🌟
We carried out 11 sessions — every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 3.5 weeks. The laser helped by:
💡 Boosting circulation
💡 Accelerating tissue repair
💡 Reducing pain and inflammation
💡 Minimising the risk of infection

Now Chesney’s tail is wagging stronger than ever, and he’s back to being his cheeky, happy self! 🐾🧡

Laser therapy can be a game changer for wounds, especially in awkward spots like tail tips, ears and paws.

🐾 Does your dog have a stubborn wound that just won’t heal? Get in touch today to see how we can help!

Ever heard of FCE in dogs?

It stands for Fibrocartilaginous Embolism (yep, it’s a mouthful!) and it’s a sudden spinal cord injury that can happen out of the blue—usually while your dog’s out playing or being active. It happens when a small fragment of cartilage blocks the blood vessels to the spinal cord.

Meet Maisey, who lost the use of her back legs 3 weeks ago due to FCE. More about her storey in another post to come.

What does it look like?

•Sudden weakness or paralysis, often in the back legs
• No obvious pain
• Dragging a leg or walking wobbly
• Trouble getting up or walking

It can be really scary to see, but the good news is—it’s not painful, and many dogs recover well!

That’s where physio comes in.

With the right support, we can help your dog:
• Build strength back up
• Get their balance and movement back
• Stay flexible and avoid muscle loss
• Feel confident and get back to doing what they love!

If your dog’s been diagnosed with FCE, don’t panic—there’s so much we can do to help them on the road to recovery.

Drop me a message to find out more!

Meet Angus – our little warrior!

On Boxing Day 2024, Angus suffered a severe IVDD episode and lost the use of his back legs. It was a heartbreaking moment for his family – but true to his determined spirit, Angus didn’t give up.

Through months of dedication, physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and pure grit, Angus is now walking again! He continues with regular physio sessions to keep his strength up and to maintain flexibility in his neck and shoulder muscles – staying strong, supple, and always ready for his next adventure.

We’re so proud of you, Angus – you’re proof that with the right support and a whole lot of heart, anything is possible.

📣 Meet Peggy! 🖤

Peggy is a beautiful black Labrador who’s been working hard to manage her elbow dysplasia. After undergoing stem cell therapy to help with her condition, she’s been maintaining her mobility and comfort with a combination of physiotherapy and hydrotherapy.

Physio helps to strengthen the supporting muscles and ligaments around her elbows, improve her range of motion, and manage any discomfort. Hydrotherapy provides a low-impact way to build strength and maintain her fitness without putting extra stress on her joints.

Peggy’s dedication (and wagging tail!) during her sessions is paying off, helping her stay active and happy. Keep it up, Peggy! 🐾✨

🐾 Meet Giro! 🐾

This little warrior has been facing a tough battle with IVDD, which left him unable to use his back legs. But that hasn’t stopped him from giving his all in physiotherapy! 💪

With regular laser therapy, we’re helping to keep him comfortable, maintain his muscle mass, and even work towards regaining some sensation in his back legs. Every small step forward is a big win for Giro, and his determination is truly inspiring! 🩵

Keep going, Giro—we’re all cheering you on! 🙌
