Meet Isis, a 14-15 year old pit bull mix. Once lively and athletic, she had slowed down significantly over the past few years, struggling with mobility and spending most of her time sleeping. Getting up onto the couch or into the truck became a challenge, and she often needed help or multiple attempts to jump.

After just one month on Librela, the change has been remarkable. Isis is now jumping onto the couch and bed with ease, no longer needing help into the truck. While she still sleeps more than when she was younger, she’s more active, playing with the younger dogs and jumping around with them. She’s eating all her meals consistently, something she struggled with before.

It’s been heartwarming to see her regain some of her old spark. If your dog is struggling with mobility, consider a consult with your vet to explore treatment options like Librela.

🐾Patient Spotlight: Reggie’s Journey to Recovery🐾
⚠️Graphic Warning⚠️

Meet Reggie! This brave pup came to us on July 22nd, with a traumatic injury that caused a large area of skin on his back to slough off. What followed was a challenging but rewarding journey of healing, filled with setbacks and successes!
From the start, Reggie’s care required a lot of attention and teamwork. His treatment plan included an initial surgical wound debridement followed by bandage changes and therapeutic laser treatments three times a week. Despite obstacles like antibiotic resistance and the ongoing struggle to keep the wound clean, Reggie and his owners never gave up.

Why Therapeutic Laser?
This non-invasive treatment is a game-changer for wound healing, arthritis, and tendon/ligament injuries. Some of the benefits include:
- Decreased Inflammation
- Pain Relief
- Improved Wound Healing

Throughout Reggie’s recovery, his owners were diligent in keeping his wound clean and following our care instructions to ensure the best possible outcome. Their commitment and trust in our care made all the difference in his recovery!
After months of consistent treatment and care, we are thrilled to share that Reggie’s wound has healed, and he’s back to being his happy, chicken nugget loving self!

A huge thank you to Reggie’s family for their dedication and patience, and to Reggie for being such a trooper through it all! 💙
