Check this out! Listen in as one of the international experts provides information on a relatively newly described condition in dogs!

Why does a dog suddenly stop on a walk and sit down?

Why do some dogs repeatedly look at their hindquarters, chew at their feet, or seem uncomfortable in certain positions, despite normal orthopaedic examinations?

For some dogs, these signs may be linked to a condition that is only now receiving increasing attention within veterinary medicine: Tethered Cord Syndrome.

Join us live on the Onlinepethealth page as we chat with Dr Rachel Lampe about this fascinating and often overlooked condition. We'll discuss what Tethered Cord Syndrome is, how it affects movement and posture, the clinical signs practitioners should be looking for, and what current research is teaching us about diagnosis and management.

Whether you're a veterinary rehabilitation therapist, veterinarian, or simply curious to learn more about this emerging area of canine neurology, we'd love to have you join the conversation.

🐈‍⬛"Cats are not small dogs"...a quote often heard during Veterinary college training. This always rang true, including my approach to respectful handling when they came to me for care.

🐈As a rehabilitation professional, I realize how many thousands of feline patients came to me in general practice, and my options were limited; they were often fearful, painful or a combination of those. Bringing rehabilitation to the home ensures fewer triggers for feline patients needing such care.

🩺Osteoarthritis is a very common condition in feline patients and is often underappreciated since many house dwelling felines are fairly sedentary.

🐱VRMOhio welcomes your feline companions as patients! We will bring rehabilitation to them in the comfort and security of their home.
