In honor of National Rehabilitation Week, we wanted to reshare the story of a very special patient — K9 Iro of the Fond du Lac County Sheriff's Office (pictured here with handler Deputy Blaine Evans and Dr. Courtney Arnoldy, who leads our specialized physical rehabilitation service.)

In 2023, Iro was shot in the line of duty. After receiving live-saving care, Iro began several months of physical rehabilitation at UW Veterinary Care (UWVC). Thanks to his rehab work, he completed his re-certification and was cleared to get back to the job he loves. We still see Iro around UWVC and look forward to his visits! Reread the original story of Iro's heroism here: https://www.vetmed.wisc.edu/wisconsin-k9-law-enforcement/
