I know that we could have located a place that does canine physical therapy but it's not the same kind of personal and caring environment. And I know that Fannie would not have felt comfortable going and we would not have wanted to stress her. We would have been at a loss. She's always very spunky the few days after swimming. Maybe a little tired but definitely more alert. So I know it's benefiting her." |

Joy has also learned to enjoy retrieving her toys from the deep end and swimming laps with her family in their pool which really helps with her arthritis from a past hip surgery! "We are amazed by the changes in Joy since you've been swimming her. When we first came to you, Joy was unable to jump in the car or to play frisbee with me - her favorite thing in all the world, so she must have been in great pain. Since you've been working with her, she jumps around like she did three years ago. By getting the weight off her legs in the pool and helping her to stretch and use those important muscles, you have given her an unexpected quality of life at this late age. It is GREAT! Thank you for all you've done to give us more good times with our sweet Joy." |
