“Daniella is the sweetest Rottweiler and came to us after a hip injury that required her to have surgery. She worked really hard during her therapy and improved her gait and her overall mobility. We are so proud of Daniella and her amazing progress.”
Dr. Amber Ihrke

Why VSMR?

Dani had a growth on her lower eyelid and hip dysplasia as a young puppy. She had the lower lid removed at 3 months and once she was old enough, she had an FHO on her left hip. In September 2022 she really started having pain and mobility issues with her right hip, so our veterinarian suggested that we try VSMRHG. Daniella started coming to VSMRHG in Dec 2022 2x a week and worked with Katharine. By the 3rd week the whole family was amazed by how much better she was moving. Dani is now doing a maintenance program with Katharine and loves both her and coming to VSMR and loves seeing everyone there.

Favorite Motivator

Tiny Milk Bones with lots of hugs and kisses

How VSMR has helped Dani:

By the 3rd week the whole family was amazed by how much better she was moving. Dani is now doing a maintenance program with Katharine and loves both her and coming to VSMR and loves seeing everyone there.
“It has been my pleasure to work with Daniella for the last couple of months to help her improve her movement in her pelvis and rear legs. Daniella has always been very loving and cooperative for her treatments. She loves giving kisses and her tiny milk bone treats when she walks in the treadmill. Daniella has made great progress in her time with us, and I can’t wait to see how for she will go!”
