Presentation
Cookie, a Maltese, came to RehabVet for rehabilitation support — presenting with mobility limits that needed a structured veterinary rehabilitation plan rather than rest alone.
Assessment
Initial assessment mapped gait, pain on palpation, and safe loading for a dog with rehabilitation. The team set modality priorities (Land rehabilitation) and revisit checkpoints before increasing intensity.
Rehabilitation plan
Between Mar 2023 – Apr 2026, Cookie completed 18 attended rehabilitation appointments — including 14 land rehabilitation visits, 4 hydrotherapy sessions. Sessions progressed in blocks with reassessment, home exercise where appropriate, and modality mix adjusted to daily comfort.
Progress
Across 81 documented visit records, therapists tracked comfort, weight-bearing, and owner-reported function — refining the plan when Cookie fatigued or when soreness flared between visits.
Outcome
Cookie's rehabilitation arc at RehabVet reflects sustained clinic commitment and multimodal care — individual results vary by diagnosis, age, and home adherence. This summary describes measured progress across 18 sessions, not a guaranteed outcome.
