We would like to say a massive congratulations to Miss Lily! 🐾🌟

Lily has been visiting ARC since February for rehab following an injury to her achilles tendon. This gorgeous young lady has put in lots of hard work both in clinic and at home in order to speed up her recovery, and over the weekend she was given the all clear by Heather - meaning she doesn’t need to come in for regularly treatment any more! 💪❤️‍🩹

Though we will miss seeing this beautiful face and those big ears, it fills us with so much joy to see a young dog like Lily recovering so well! We are so proud of this girl, and thank her dedicated Pawrents for choosing us to help in her care 💚🥰

The wait is over! We are so excited to welcome the newest member of the ARC family, physiotherapist Sarah! 🌟

Sarah loves being around animals and lives on a farm with her parents where there are also 6 dogs, 6 horses, 4 cats and 2 alpacas. She enjoys being active including netball, pilates and the gym as well as riding welsh cobs competitively. 🐎🐕🐈

Sarah is qualified as a human physiotherapist and will be starting her post graduate study in Animal Physiotherapy through the University of Liverpool in 2023.

Did you know we do post surgery day care? Lochie does! ❤️‍🩹🙏

This sweet boy is Lochie, who always smashes his underwater treadmill session with us whilst in the clinic for daycare. Lochie unfortunately had both back legs needing knee surgery closer together than expected but is doing very well in his recovery. We have to say it's a treat having him board with us. We love his cuddles and puppy eyes! 🥺🥰

He always makes sure to bring in his special toy ‘Poppet’ to keep him occupied throughout his stay! 🧸🦴

If you daycare would suit you and your pup post operation, don’t hesitate to enquire with us today! 💚🐾

Our doors are open to animals of all shapes, sizes and species! 🐑

This is Winnie! A four week old rescue lamb who came to visit us as her foster parents noticed she wasn’t growing at a normal rate. Unfortunately she has inflamed joints, making it difficult for her to walk on land 🥺 Thankfully, the buoyancy of the water in the treadmill reduces load bearing on the joints and allows us to build her strength and increase range of movement in her limbs! 💦💪🏽

Here’s the brave girl smashing her first ever treadmill session! 💚

Where does your dog fall on the body condition score chart? 🤔

41% of Australian dogs are overweight or obese 🍪. Excess weight can contribute to a multitude of complications from heart disease to respiratory issues and an increased risk of serious joint and ligament conditions such as osteoarthritis and cruciate tears 😧.

To minimise the risk of developing these conditions, it’s important to assess your dog’s current condition, keep them fit and help them maintain a healthy weight! 💪🏽🥗🍖

Handsome Harry has been joining us in reception for the past few weeks for daycare following spinal surgery to treat Intervertebral Disc Disease 💚

Intervertebral discs allow for movement and act as the vertebra’s shock absorbers. Degeneration of these discs can lead to spinal cord compression and disc herniation, which is often treated with a hemilaminectomy or a ventral slot surgery. 👨🏽‍⚕️

IVDD is the most common spinal disease in dogs, often observed in breeds with short legs compared to their body length, such as Dachshunds, Corgis and French Bulldogs. 🐶
