My
name is Danielle. In January 2006 my 18 month old Shih Tzu Tia slipped
and damaged her cruciate ligament. She was referred for 6 weeks
of canine hydrotherapy. Here is our personal account of Tia's hydrotherapy
sessions.
Session 3
This week we had a good session. Tia's time was increased by 1/2
a minute on each swim.
We had a different hydrotherapist this week as Tanya was away but
Nicky thought Tia did Brilliantly. She seems to be panicking less
each week so I hope she is becoming more comfortable in the water.
Nicky says alot of dogs can be quite scared to begin with but it
normally gets easier as they go on.
They often encourage you to bring the dogs favourite toy to make
the session fun but Tia wasn't really interested and she works hard
enough with having a toy with her.
All in all another good week and I'm very pleased with her progress.
