Whether your dog lives for long hikes or prefers cozy naps on the couch, they deserve to feel their best. At Canobie Lake Veterinary Hospital, our canine rehabilitation services are designed to help your dog move comfortably, recover from injury or surgery, and live a more active, pain-free life.
We take a compassionate, personalized approach to every rehab plan—because every dog is different, and so are their goals. Whether we’re helping a senior dog stay mobile, easing the pain of arthritis, or getting an energetic pup back on their feet after surgery, our goal is always the same: a happier, healthier life for your best friend.

When Canine Rehabilitation Can Help
Dogs of all ages and activity levels can benefit from rehabilitation—especially when they’re facing challenges like:
- Post-Surgery Recovery: Rehab helps your dog bounce back after orthopedic or neurologic surgery, so they can heal faster and regain their strength.
- Injury or Chronic Conditions: From joint problems to back issues, rehab can ease pain and improve comfort without the need for surgery.
- Senior Mobility: As dogs get older, rehab helps maintain their independence by improving strength, flexibility, and balance.
- Arthritis Support: Gentle therapies ease joint pain and stiffness, helping your pup move with more comfort and confidence.
- Healthy Weight Goals: Rehab exercises support weight loss while protecting joints and promoting safe activity.
- Canine Athletes: For working or sporting dogs, rehab improves performance, prevents injury, and supports a quicker return to action.
Canine Rehabilitation Therapies
We offer a variety of gentle, noninvasive therapies to help your dog feel better, move better, and enjoy life to the fullest.
What to Expect During Your Dog’s Physical Rehabilitation Visit
We start every journey with a thoughtful, in-depth consultation led by our certified rehabilitation veterinarian, Dr. Parnell. During your first visit, we will:
- Chat with you about your dog’s history, lifestyle, and challenges
- Gently evaluate their mobility, strength, and range of motion
- Use thermal imaging to find hidden areas of discomfort or inflammation
- Tailor a plan just for your dog, based on their needs, goals, and personality
Your dog’s custom rehab plan may include in-clinic treatments, at-home exercises, pain management options, and nutritional tips to support their progress every step of the way.
We kindly request that you complete our online history form at least 24 hours prior to your consultation.
