Hello and welcome to Nala. Such a sweet girl!
Nala had luxating patella on both sides. Her knees dislocated. She had surgery to fix the issue. However she was still having issues with lameness.
This is not unusual. Rehabillitation is very normal in the human world following surgery, but is often missed in the animal world.
Nalas vet was on the case and sent her to us for physio.
We are thrilled to report we got her on a program of muscle building and she is doing really well.
Following surgery there is a recovery period. In that time muscle can reduce. In rehab, we give excercises to the owner to help rebuild what is lost and get the animal confident in the limb again.
Well done Nala and mum!
