Finally peeking out of the woods!

Meet Her Ladyship Maud, our much-loved black Labrador with a wonderfully bright personality.

Maud has always been an active dog, enjoying long runs with her owner and swimming whenever she had the chance. Unfortunately, an injury sustained while jumping a stile led to a rupture of two key ligaments in her right hind knee, requiring surgical repair.

Following surgery, Maud began her rehabilitation journey, which later included specialist hydrotherapy to help rebuild muscle strength, improve function, and support weight-bearing in the affected limb. We were pleased to be involved in supporting her recovery.

Three months on, Maud has made excellent progress and has now been discharged from the specialist team. She has achieved over 4cm increase in muscle mass in her right hind limb and has returned to her happy, engaged self.

Her family continue to manage her exercise carefully, and she is ongoing with regular hydrotherapy to support her continued recovery.

Well done, Maud 🐾

Happy 4th Birthday, Barney! 🐾🎉

Today we're celebrating one of our longest-standing patients, the wonderful Barney!

Barney first came to us before his first birthday with elbow dysplasia and growth plate flare-ups that were affecting his mobility. With a tailored treatment plan, regular hydrotherapy sessions, and the incredible dedication of his owners, Barney has gone from strength to strength.

Now, he maintains a healthy weight, stays fit and active, and has been enjoying life free from mobility issues for several years. He still visits us for hydrotherapy as part of his ongoing maintenance programme, and we always love seeing our little white polar bear! 🤍

We're so proud to have been part of Barney's journey and to watch him thrive.

Join us in wishing Barney a very happy 4th birthday filled with treats, toys, and plenty of tail wags! 🎂🎁🐶

PROMs in dogs — small movement, big impact 🐾

PROMs (Passive Range of Movement) are a cornerstone of veterinary physiotherapy, used in both rehabilitation and prehabilitation.
PROMs involve gently moving a joint through its available range without the dog actively using their muscles. This controlled movement is commonly used in a wide range of conditions including post-operative orthopaedic cases (e.g. TPLO, fracture repair), osteoarthritis, and neurological conditions.

📌 Why PROMs matter:
PROMs help maintain joint mobility, reduce periarticular stiffness, and support synovial fluid circulation — all important factors in preserving joint health when normal movement is reduced. They are also used to maintain comfort and prepare tissues for progression into active exercise.

👉 When done correctly, PROMs are:
Gentle and pain-free
Controlled and within available range
Tailored to the individual patient and condition stage
PROMs may look simple, but they play a key role in evidence-informed veterinary rehabilitation programmes across many conditions. 🐶

As we enjoy this sunny weather, we’d like to remind our clients to take extra care with their pets in the heat ☀️🐾

Hot temperatures can be especially difficult for pets recovering from injury, managing arthritis, or undergoing rehabilitation.

Please remember:
• Keep pets well hydrated
• Walk during cooler parts of the day
• Avoid hot pavements
• Allow plenty of rest after activity

If you’re travelling a long distance for your appointment or feel the heat may be too much for your pet, please don’t hesitate to discuss this with our team — your pet’s comfort and wellbeing always come first 💙

Meet Brooke, Our Dog of the Month 🌟

This special little lady may have been small, but her personality was larger than life. Brooke was full of character, charm, and just the right amount of mischief — especially when food was involved… edible or not! 💛

For many years, Brooke was a hardworking dog who loved staying busy and active. Sadly, when age meant she could no longer work, she found herself in a shelter, expected to spend her remaining days there. Thankfully, her loving parents stepped in and gave her the second chance she truly deserved.

Over the next year and a half, Brooke got to experience love, comfort, cuddles, and being thoroughly spoiled rotten. She embraced retirement in true Brooke style, winning hearts everywhere she went with her quirky habits and resilient spirit.

Although her health recently declined and the difficult decision was made to let her go peacefully, Brooke never stopped showing us her strength and spark right until the very end.
We feel incredibly lucky to have known such a special little lady and to have been part of her journey.

Run free over the rainbow bridge, sweet Brooke — pain-free, forever loved, and deeply missed. 🌈🐾

Merlin’s Story 🐾

Meet Merlin, one of our much-loved regulars who’s been part of our practice family for years—both as a patient and a companion. 💙

Merlin has always visited us for the occasional bit of tightness and conditioning work, especially around his lower back. But more than anything, he’s known for being one of the happiest, goofiest boys around… he never fails to make us laugh every time he walks through the door!

Recently, Merlin was diagnosed with Canine Degenerative Myelopathy (DM). It’s a progressive condition and, sadly, there’s no cure.

That said, we’re doing everything we can to keep Merlin comfortable, happy, and moving for as long as possible. His care now includes regular physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, and acupuncture—supporting him every step of the way.

We absolutely adore Merlin and feel honoured to be part of his journey🐶.

05/05/2026

We’d like to let you know that, from 1st May 2026, there has been a small increase in our hydrotherapy and physiotherapy prices.

This allows us to continue providing the highest standard of care, maintain our specialist equipment, and ensure your pets receive the best possible treatment and support throughout their rehabilitation.

We truly appreciate your understanding and continued support!

Helping Our Super Doggy Get His Superpowers Back! 🐾

Meet Woody, a gorgeous 10-year-old Golden Retriever cross with a heart as big as his paws. Woody isn’t just a much-loved companion—he’s a dedicated guide dog whose support means the world to his visually impaired mum, Hazel. At home he’s a playful, lovable goofball, but when his harness goes on, he’s calm, focused, and completely in tune with his important role.

Recently, Woody faced a tough setback with his back legs and underwent surgery on both stifles. True to form, he’s taken it all in his stride. His recovery has been nothing short of inspiring, and he’s making fantastic progress every day.

We’re so pleased to be supporting Woody through his hydrotherapy sessions, helping him rebuild strength and get back to doing what he does best. With his determination—and Hazel by his side—there’s no doubt he’ll be back to full strength in no time.

Keep going, Woody—you really are a superhero! 🐶💙
