Underwater Treadmill Rehabilitation
Bullet is working hard to be ready for summer fun! Bullet had surgery to repair a torn ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) on his left stifle in March. Unfortunately he then tore his ACl on the right side and had another surgery in April. It is estimated that dogs who tear one knee have a 40-60% chance of injuring the opposite knee as well. Bullet is working in the underwater treadmill to regain strength in both knees.

In the realm of physical rehabilitation and injury recovery hydrotherapy has been a game changer. We are incredibly lucky to be able to offer this awesome therapy for pets in the valley. Our trained rehabilitation veterinarians build a rehab plan customized to each pets specific needs.
The underwater treadmill is beneficial for post surgery rehab, physical conditioning, weight loss and degenerative conditions such as osteoarthritis.
-The natural buoyancy of the water assists in a low impact, but high intensity workouts.
-The water is kept at a warm therapeutic temperature to loosen muscles and tendons and soothe sore joints.
-Water depth can be adjusted to provide optimal resistance and help build muscle mass.
-Incline is also an added bonus for strengthening.
Our model Abbey is currently utilizing the treadmill for cruciate ligament disease and weight loss. She is a champ! 🐾

Furry Family Friday!!
Tippy came from All Hearts Rescue (Shout out to Diane-One of the kindest hearts i know!!) in Polson.
She was a tiny babe when she arrived. She fit right in and was a typical silly kitten full of love and chaos. Shes mellowed now, but still likes to rip around the house and wrestle with Grannpa Badger on a regular basis. Cardboard boxes and soft blankets are her weakness and if the mood suits her she will snuggle in for a good purr fest. Pretty little Tippy makes our family whole! ❤️🐾

Join us in wishing Corona a very happy 11th birthday!!
Corona is an Presa Canario and has been visiting with us for a year to treat his Osteoarthritis. He loves getting acupuncture, but most of all it’s about the treats! Thanks for being a good sport and wearing a pink tiara! 👑 🤣🐾❤️

Furry Family Friday!
Badger Cat was adopted from Life Savers Rescue in Polson 10-ish years ago . He had been found living in one of the feral cat colonies and was clearly not the feral beast he dreamed of being.
He settled in quickly, bossing the dogs around, wrestling with our other cat and occasionally sneaking out to spend a night in the wilds of our neighborhood.
His majesty demands a continuous supply of food of his liking, heated beds and lots of petting.
He drools when he's happy, chews plastic things when he's hangry, and meowls loudly in the middle of the night for unknown reasons.
Badger is the epitome of domestic cats and we love him to pieces!
Long live king Badger!
Eddie is loving his new custom wheels!
