My Belgian Malinois Cookie will be turning eleven years old this year. She has had a good healthy and active life. We have enjoyed playing, training, and competing in various dog sports over the years. She has earned titles in Shutzhund, AKC and UKC obedience. The last few years we scaled down to medium activities such as tracking and nose work. However aging can bring on some physical discomfort. My regular veterinarian recommended to consult Dr. Oakley at MASH. After evaluating her, he decided the best course to take would be to do a program that consists of laser therapeutic exercise and resistance pool hydrotherapy with a home exercise program. Within a few months of Rehab Cookie has greatly improved and shows that she feels more like her old self again. We couldn’t be happier with the results that Cookie is having from the rehab. Thanks to Dr. Sue of Watkins Park Veterinary Hospital for her recommendation. Thanks to Dr. Oakley and also to his physical therapist Jennifer Hill and assistant Drew Fisher for their dedication and guidance. Cookie and I feel we are in good hands with people who care, we always look forward to our visits at MASH to visit Jennifer and Drew.
