Mo one of our patients came to celebrate graduation last Thursday with some students who helped with his recovery. He was very happy to see them all 💛💙

ARU Writtle Students Celebrate Graduation with Special Guest!

Graduates from ARU Writtle’s Veterinary Physiotherapy and Canine Therapy courses reunited with Mo, a greyhound they helped rehabilitate after a serious neck injury, at Chelmsford Cathedral.

Mo’s recovery involved hydrotherapy, electrotherapy, and exercise therapy, all carried out at ARU Writtle’s canine clinic. Now fully recovered, Mo is back to running and enjoying life—thanks to the dedication of students, staff, and his owner.
