Dog Daycare
Can dog daycare help with reducing leash pulling behaviour for Eastern Suburbs dogs?

While not directly addressing leash training, the exercise and socialisation at daycare can lead to calmer behaviour on leash for Eastern Suburbs dogs.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Is hydrotherapy effective in preventing muscle atrophy in dogs with tarsal OCD?

Yes, hydrotherapy can be effective in preventing muscle atrophy in dogs with tarsal OCD. The water's resistance provides an excellent environment for maintaining and building muscle strength, even when weight-bearing exercise on land might be too painful or challenging.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
How can hydrotherapy benefit dogs with tarsal osteochondritis dissecans?

Hydrotherapy can benefit dogs with tarsal osteochondritis dissecans by providing a low-impact environment for joint mobilization and muscle strengthening. The water's buoyancy reduces stress on the affected tarsal joint while allowing for exercises that can improve range of motion and overall joint function.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
How does warm water hydrotherapy benefit dogs with osteoarthritis?

Warm water hydrotherapy benefits dogs with osteoarthritis in several ways. The warmth can help soothe sore joints and increase blood flow, while the water's buoyancy reduces weight-bearing stress. This allows for pain-free movement, helping to improve joint mobility and strengthen supporting muscles.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Can hydrotherapy help in the management of shoulder osteochondrosis in dogs?

Yes, hydrotherapy can be helpful in managing shoulder osteochondrosis in dogs. It provides a low-impact environment for improving shoulder mobility and strengthening the surrounding muscles without putting excessive stress on the affected joint.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
How does hydrotherapy aid in recovery after surgery for shoulder osteochondrosis?

Hydrotherapy aids in recovery after surgery for shoulder osteochondrosis by allowing for early, controlled movement. The water's buoyancy supports the joint, enabling a greater range of motion exercises and muscle strengthening with minimal stress on the surgical site, potentially speeding up recovery and improving outcomes.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Can hydrotherapy help manage pain in dogs with hip dysplasia?

Yes, hydrotherapy can help manage pain in dogs with hip dysplasia. The warm water can have a soothing effect on the joints, while the low-impact exercise helps strengthen the muscles around the hip, improve range of motion, and enhance overall joint function, potentially reducing pain and discomfort.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Is hydrotherapy recommended before or after surgery for patella luxation?

Hydrotherapy can be beneficial both before and after surgery for patella luxation. Pre-surgery, it can help strengthen muscles and improve overall fitness. Post-surgery, it aids in recovery by allowing for early, controlled movement that can improve healing and prevent muscle atrophy. Always follow your veterinarian's specific recommendations for timing.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
How can hydrotherapy help dogs with patella luxation?

Hydrotherapy can help dogs with patella luxation by strengthening the muscles around the knee joint, particularly the quadriceps. This improved muscle strength can help keep the patella in its proper position. The water's buoyancy also allows for exercise with reduced stress on the joint.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Can hydrotherapy slow the progression of osteoarthritis in dogs?

While hydrotherapy cannot reverse osteoarthritis, it may help slow its progression. Regular sessions can maintain joint mobility, strengthen supporting muscles, and improve overall fitness, potentially reducing the rate of joint degeneration and managing symptoms more effectively over time.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Is hydrotherapy safe for dogs with severe carpal hyperextension?

Hydrotherapy can be safe and beneficial for dogs with severe carpal hyperextension when properly supervised. The water's buoyancy reduces weight-bearing stress on the joint, allowing for therapeutic exercises that might be too painful or difficult on land. Always consult with a veterinary rehabilitation specialist to ensure the therapy is appropriate for your dog's specific condition.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Is hydrotherapy effective in preventing recurrence of medial shoulder instability in dogs?

Yes, regular hydrotherapy can be effective in preventing recurrence of medial shoulder instability. By consistently strengthening the supporting muscles and improving overall shoulder function, hydrotherapy can help maintain joint stability and reduce the risk of future injuries.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Can hydrotherapy help dogs with lumbosacral disease?

Yes, hydrotherapy can help dogs with lumbosacral disease by providing a supportive environment for strengthening the core and hind limb muscles. The water's buoyancy reduces stress on the lower back while allowing for exercises that can improve stability and function in the affected area.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
How can hydrotherapy improve shoulder stability in dogs?

Hydrotherapy can improve shoulder stability in dogs by providing a controlled environment for strengthening the muscles that support the shoulder joint. The water's resistance allows for exercises that target these muscles effectively, while its buoyancy reduces stress on the joint during movement.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
Is hydrotherapy safe for dogs immediately after IVDD surgery?

The safety and timing of hydrotherapy after IVDD surgery depend on the specific surgical procedure and the dog's recovery progress. Some dogs may be able to start gentle hydrotherapy within a week or two post-surgery, while others may need to wait longer. Always follow your veterinary surgeon's recommendations.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
How does hydrotherapy compare to land-based exercises for managing lumbosacral disease in dogs?

Hydrotherapy often provides advantages over land-based exercises for dogs with lumbosacral disease. The water's buoyancy reduces the impact on the spine, allowing for a greater range of motion and more intensive exercise with less pain. This can lead to better muscle strengthening and improved function compared to what might be tolerated on land.

Hydrotherapy and Canine Rehabilitation
When is it safe to start hydrotherapy for a dog recovering from Coonhound paralysis?

The timing to start hydrotherapy for a dog recovering from Coonhound paralysis should be determined by a veterinary neurologist or rehabilitation specialist. Some dogs may be able to start gentle hydrotherapy once they show signs of improvement, typically a few weeks after onset. Always follow professional medical advice.
