Beautiful Iggy in for her regular senior maintenance 💙

As dogs get older, they can start to slow down, feel a little stiff after resting, or find some things harder than they used to. Ongoing rehab helps keep her moving comfortably, supports her muscles and eases pressure on sore joints.

It’s not just about mobility, it’s about keeping her happy, confident and enjoying her everyday life for as long as possible 🐾

Call our lovely reception team on 4213 9333 to book a consult with one of our vets and create a tailored plan to support your senior pet 🩺💙

🐾💙Meet Walter 💙🐾

Walter was diagnosed with IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease) and underwent surgical treatment. Following surgery, he began a structured rehabilitation program to support his recovery, rebuild strength and improve mobility.

As part of his rehab journey, Walter has been receiving TENS therapy, laser therapy, and hydrotherapy, all of which play an important role in pain management, nerve stimulation, muscle strengthening and restoring movement. These therapies work together to support healing while keeping rehabilitation safe and controlled.

The progress Walter has made so far has been incredible. From improved comfort to increased strength and confidence, his dedication (and very good attitude) has been inspiring to watch. Rehabilitation is a gradual process, but with the right support, consistency and tailored treatment, dogs with IVDD can achieve amazing outcomes.

We’re so proud of Walter and honoured to be part of his recovery journey 💙🐾🩺

Meet Casper, our lovely 11-year-old Groodle who visits us regularly for senior mobility support 🐾

Casper lives with arthritis, so her treatment plan includes hydrotherapy, TENS and laser therapy to help reduce inflammation, improve comfort and maintain joint mobility.

She’s also supported with Beransa, Synovan injections and Antinol to keep her moving comfortably day-to-day.
Ongoing management like this helps our senior patients stay active, mobile and happy as they age.

If you have a senior pet showing stiffness or slowing down, our team can help create a tailored arthritis plan.
For appointments or advice, please call 4213 9333 💙
