April is Canine Fitness Month!

Staying active is key to keeping our dogs strong, mobile, and healthy—no matter their age or activity level.

We’re so proud of Monty, who has spent the last few months working hard in rehab after surgery. His recovery has included underwater treadmill therapy, which provides low-impact resistance to build muscle and improve range of motion without putting stress on healing joints. He’s also benefited from laser therapy, which helps reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and accelerate tissue repair. Together, these therapies have helped him get back to his pre surgery adventures. Way to go, Monty!

Fitness looks different for every dog, but intentional movement is essential for them all—whether they’re recovering, maintaining, or just starting out.

How does your pup stay active?

Graduation Day for Mia & Enzo!

Mia and Enzo have officially graduated from their weight loss journey! Mia has lost an incredible 13 pounds, and Enzo isn’t far behind with 10 pounds down. Through dedication, hard work, and plenty of underwater treadmill sessions, they’ve both reached their goals and are feeling stronger and healthier than ever!

We’re so proud of these two and all the progress they’ve made. Huge thanks to their amazing foster family for supporting them every step of the way!

Big smiles from Bob during his physical rehabilitation session with us here at Aurora! Hydrotherapy is a fantastic low-impact workout for senior dogs, helping improve joint mobility, strengthen muscles, and reduce pain while keeping exercise safe and comfortable.

Bob is setting a great example of how senior dogs can stay strong and active with the right care and therapy!

Ruby knows that safety comes first, so she’s rocking her doggles like a pro during her laser therapy session!

Photobiomodulation therapy (laser therapy) is a non-invasive treatment that helps reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and speed up healing—perfect for pups managing chronic conditions or recovering from surgery.

Ruby deserves some love for being the coolest (and safest) dog at the vet!
