Rottweiler Appreciation Post and Hydrotherapy Progress! 🐾🖤
Meet Tyson, a wonderful 1-year-old Rottweiler who began hydrotherapy at just 9 months old after his trainer noticed an abnormality in his gait.
During his initial assessment, we identified a 2 cm imbalance in both his hindlimbs and forelimbs, with his right hindlimb and left forelimb being slightly smaller.
Since then, Tyson has worked incredibly hard in his hydrotherapy sessions—mainly on the Underwater Treadmill (UWTM)—and his progress over just 12 sessions has been fantastic! Recently, he’s also discovered how exciting swimming can be, and now it’s one of his favourite parts of therapy. We absolutely adore Tyson and are so proud of how far he’s come. 💙🐾
And of course, we can’t forget Athena!
Athena attends monthly hydrotherapy sessions with us because her owner understands how vital hydrotherapy is for larger breeds—helping to protect joints and reduce the risk of injury. As a working dog who also competes in sport, hydrotherapy has been a brilliant way to condition her gait and improve her range of movement.
We’re also working on building Athena’s confidence — and she loves hydrotherapy so much! 💛🐾 we all love Athena!
We’re so proud of both Tyson and Athena—they’re shining examples of how hydrotherapy supports strength, mobility, and confidence.
