Cancers that affect our dog's limbs, like Osteosarcoma, often result in amputation. The aftercare and recovery process can seem daunting, however there are alternative approaches to rehabilitation that can improve your dog’s mobility and ultimately their quality of life. In this episode, Dr. Erica Ancier talks with us about hydrotherapy treatment and other ways you can build strength and stamina in your dog at home.
