Hi Marianne! I'm so glad to hear you are feeling better now. I've been thinking about you guys. If you look at Sidney's page you'll see a video I posted a few weeks ago of Sidney running around the dog park. We're up to walking a couple miles now, many times with no problem. When he walks, you can't see a limp or anything! His fur's almost all grown back, just the deep red is still a bit pale. He's not on any anti-inflammatory at the moment, but does get his glucosamine. I know that the water therapy made him really strong and limber :)

Merry Christmas to you!

Oh my gosh Marianne, that would be amazing! I know shipping can cost, though. I'd want to reimburse you for that. I'll head to your site once I get home from work. That is so thoughtful of you...wow!

Thanks again, Marianne, you have trylu been my "go to" person. Did you have to muzzle COrgi, did he try to bite you while doing the PT? Or did he take it like a trooper?
We're lucky we have a hydrotherapy facility about 15 minutes from home. I always thought I'd have to use it for my elderly corgi mix Bruce, not a young fit Sidney!

Hi Marianne,
Well, Sidney is having the FHO surgery tomorrow. I know he'll be in good hands, but I'm concerned, I want to do the recovery phase right. I've heard we'll have to manipulate the joint and do stretching exercises, and it's supposed to hurt a bit...maybe a lot. How did you make sure that Corgi did not associate pain with you? Did he hide if he thought he'd have to do his PT? I know we'll have to hurt him a little to help him heal. but I'm worried about it. We'll be doing some water therapy at a local facility we have here.

Thank you! I've been watching your videos and they have given me some hope. I'll check out your site. Going to the vet specialist soon.

Marianne, I just found out that Sidney has severe hip dysplasia. Can you give us any advice? I feel very lost. DId you make a blog post about the surgery and diagnosis?

I saw your video on the corgi water therapy and I wanted to say that she has such a sweet little face and that I hope she is doing much, much better. She looked like she wanted to cry but she stayed so calm. I am sure she appreciates all you do for her!!

I have enjoyed your video documentation on Corgi's surgery and recovery. She looks to be a very happy, pain free girl. I truly appreciated your comments on the important things in life! Take care.

welcome Marianne, Brooke and Corgi!
