Has your dog started doing any of these? 🐾

Sometimes changes in movement are really obvious. Other times, they're much more subtle.

You might notice your dog:

• takes a little longer to get up after resting
• hesitates before jumping into the car, onto the sofa or during sports
• starts falling behind on walks when they didn't before

The important thing is knowing what's normal for your dog and noticing when something changes.

If you're concerned about a change in your dog's movement, speak to your vet.

Veterinary physiotherapy can help support dogs with a range of mobility needs, with treatment tailored to the individual dog.

🐾 Why I chose to become a mobile veterinary physiotherapist? 🐾

One of the questions I'm asked is why I travel to my patients.

The answer is simple.

Most dogs are happiest in their own home. They're more relaxed, more comfortable and able to move naturally in a familiar environment.

Being mobile also means I get to see how your dog moves in their everyday surroundings, which helps me tailor each treatment and rehabilitation plan to their individual needs.

The best part? You don't need to worry about travelling to another appointment. I bring everything needed for your dog's physiotherapy session directly to you.

Is physiotherapy only for dogs after surgery?

The simple answer is no.

Although rehabilitation after an operation is an important part of veterinary physiotherapy, it's only one reason I see dogs.

Physiotherapy may also help support dogs who are getting older, living with arthritis, recovering from an injury or finding everyday movement more difficult.

And the goal isn't necessarily something dramatic.

It might be helping a dog stay strong enough to enjoy their walks, move around the house more comfortably or find everyday activities a little easier.

Every dog is different, which is why treatment is tailored to their individual needs.

If you've noticed a change in your dog's movement and you're wondering whether physiotherapy could help, send me a message and tell me a little about them. 💙

Meet Blue 🐾💕

One of the things we worked on recently during Blue's physiotherapy session was building strength through his back legs.

Why does that matter?

Dogs use their back legs for so many everyday movements, such as: getting up from their bed, climbing steps, getting into the car and enjoying their walks.

We used gentle, controlled exercises tailored specifically to Blue to help support his strength and mobility.

Physiotherapy doesn't always involve big or complicated exercises. Sometimes it's about working on the small movements that can help make everyday life a little easier.

And, of course, Blue did a brilliant job. 💙

If you've noticed changes in the way your dog moves, feel free to message me to find out whether physiotherapy could help.

How does veterinary physiotherapy help my dog?

Every dog is different, so every physiotherapy session is tailored to their individual needs. After assessing how your dog moves, treatment is designed to help them move more comfortably and confidently.

Depending on your dog's needs, treatment may include:

🐾 Manual therapy and massage
🐾 Therapeutic exercises
🐾 Laser therapy
🐾 Advice on exercises to continue at home

The aim is to help your dog:

✔️ Improve mobility
✔️ Build and maintain strength
✔️ Support recovery after injury or surgery
✔️ Manage long-term conditions such as arthritis
✔️ Enjoy everyday activities with greater comfort

Whether that's finding it easier to get up after a nap, enjoying walks again or simply moving more comfortably around the house, every small improvement can make a big difference to your dog's quality of life.

If you've ever wondered whether physiotherapy could help your dog, I'd be happy to answer your questions.

💙

Meet Millie.

Millie is one of my lovely senior patients.

As dogs get older, it's natural for them to slow down a little, but that doesn't mean there's nothing we can do to support them.

With Millie, our sessions focus on helping her stay comfortable, maintain her strength and keep moving as well as possible.

The goal of physiotherapy isn't to make an older dog young again. It's to help them enjoy everyday life and maintain a good quality of life for as long as possible.

If you've noticed your own dog slowing down, struggling to get up after resting or becoming less enthusiastic about walks, physiotherapy may be able to help support them.

Is my dog too old for physiotherapy? 🤔

This was the question I was asked most at the dog show this weekend.

The answer is usually no.

Older dogs are often the dogs who benefit most from physiotherapy.

The aim isn't to make them act like puppies again.

It's to help them:

🐾 Move more comfortably
🐾 Stay as active as possible
🐾 Support stiff joints and muscles
🐾 Enjoy everyday life for longer

Every dog is different, so treatment is always tailored to their individual needs.

If you've noticed your dog slowing down, struggling to get up after resting, or not enjoying walks like they used to, it may be worth finding out if physiotherapy could help.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you have.

Meet Caradog, who I had the pleasure of seeing for his physiotherapy session last weekend. 🩵

Every dog is different, which means every treatment plan is tailored to their individual needs.

Before starting treatment, I carry out a thorough assessment to understand how each dog is moving. This helps me decide which treatment techniques and rehabilitation exercises are most appropriate for them on the day.

For Caradog, his session included:

✨ Laser therapy to help support healing and reduce inflammation where appropriate.

💪 Rehabilitation exercises, including work on a physiotherapy ball to improve balance, core strength and confidence.

My aim is always the same: to help dogs move more comfortably so they can get back to doing what they love.

Thank you to Caradog's owner for allowing me to share these lovely photos. 🩵
