About the Service

Canine orthopedic disorders encompass a range of conditions affecting the bones, joints, and connective tissues in dogs. Common orthopedic disorders include hip dysplasia, a genetic condition where the hip joint doesn't develop properly, leading to pain and mobility issues. Another prevalent disorder is cruciate ligament injury, which involves damage to the ligaments stabilizing the knee joint, often resulting in lameness and discomfort. Additionally, osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease, causes inflammation and deterioration of cartilage, leading to joint pain and stiffness. Canine rehabilitation services offered by Cooper Animal Rehab and Wellness are instrumental in managing these orthopedic disorders, providing tailored treatment plans to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall function.

On the other hand, canine neurological disorders affect the nervous system and can manifest in various ways. Conditions such as intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) involve compression or herniation of spinal discs, leading to pain, weakness, and potential paralysis. Degenerative myelopathy is another neurological disorder characterized by progressive paralysis starting in the hind limbs. Additionally, conditions like epilepsy cause seizures due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Canine rehabilitation services play a crucial role in addressing neurological disorders by focusing on strengthening muscles, improving balance and coordination, and facilitating neural plasticity. Through targeted exercises, modalities, and therapeutic interventions, Cooper Animal Rehab and Wellness helps dogs with neurological disorders regain function and improve their quality of life.
