Some patients REALLY love their treatments. Carling loves her snacks, and acupuncture, and tolerates her gym time.....but she thinks massage is her favourite😊

Finley came to visit us this week and had a gait in his hind end characteristic of a certain condition called Gracilis Fibrotic Myopathy. German Shepherds seem to be more commonly affected than other breeds. The cause is still not entirely known although nutrition, auto-immune, and trauma have all been proposed as factors. The gracilis muscle is responsible for adducting the leg and extending the hock and hip. As the muscle fibers are replaced with scar tissue it causes an elastic band effect at the lowered leg during the forward swing phase of the gait. You can see on slow motion how the hock rotates externally and the stifle rotates internally as the leg advances forward.
While there have not been a ton of treatments successful in mamging the condition, stretching, laser, and Shockwave have been found to slow the progression.
Finley was excited to do ALL the things and was a very very good boy. Welcome to SOAR buddy🥰

On another gloomy weather day, here is something to make you smile.
Little Ruby had been managing some neurologic concerns since she was 1 year of age. Unfortunately there was progression of her condition due to a spinal deformity and spinal stenosis, and Ruby underwent spinal surgery on July 30 2024. While the compression was surgically removed, there was some decline in her condition after surgery.
Please note....these are not easy conditions to manage. Incontinence. Lack of mobility. Big or small, it takes a toll on clients as they try to do whatever they can. You switch from being able to let your dog out to go to the bathroom, to standing in the rain holding them up. Ruby's owners have been working so hard at home since their first visit on Sept 9. Neurologic progress is slow and sometimes, especially with physical changes to the spine, incomplete.
Ruby is continuously improving and we are so proud of her and her family for their hard work.
To all of our families working hard for progress or trying so hard to slow progression of conditions....we see you and we appreciate you🥰❤️
Happy Friday everyone
