We adopted a terrier mix front leg tripawd on Jan. 1st this year. He comes with a history of having been attacked by a pack of larger dogs resulting in multiple bites on all limbs and supposedly the front right amputation. Additional information states the limb was amputated prior to the fight so we don’t really know how long he has been a tripawd. His mobility was great during the first 7 weeks with no indication of pain. Over the past 6 weeks he is demonstrating decreasing stamina/mobility and significant increase in pain. He responds well to Capoten as needed and massage with Absorbine gel. He is on a glucosamine supplement plus Hills Metabolic and Mobility. Would this program be appropriate for his rehab? His vet is recommending acupuncture or chiropractic however we are not close to reputable providers. Thank you
Hi and thanks for adopting your pup. It’s not unusual for a new Tripawd to slow down like this, it’s usually because all their new life’s activity is catching up to them. It’s great that you saw your vet to discuss his situation. We do believe that yes this program will be helpful, but if you can perhaps manage the in-person visits for a while so that you can get him back to a pain-free life, that would be SUPER helpful and help him heal faster. Usually it just takes a few weeks, say 4-6, of initial rehab therapy before you can scale back on in-person visits. This program would be a great addendum to a program developed especially for your new buddy.
Best wishes to you both! Keep us posted in the Tripawds Discussion Forums!
Cooper has been a front-leg amputee for 9 years (he was a puppy when he lost his leg). He recovered at that time very, very quickly and he can jump into the car, does stairs quite well (we live in a one-level home though); and he jumps onto and off of the couch and human bed. But… we really can’t go for walks. He can’t keep up with the other two non-disabled dogs, and he not only lags behind but starts panting heavily, and often hops away into the woods (naughty) because I’ll walk ahead with the other two and leave him unleashed behind us. We live in the country, so there is no danger of traffic or anything. However, as he gets older.. I worry that he won’t be able to do any of this activity as time goes on. Would this program help in a case like ours?
Hi Kathleen, it’s great to hear from you! I’m glad Cooper is still thriving, he’s such a great dog! I would say that YES this program can help him get stronger, but I can’t say if it will enable him to keep up with the other dogs. Have you considered a pet stroller? They are GREAT for multi-dog housholds! And some models are really good at going off-road. But first please check in with your vet to ensure there’s nothing else going on. And don’t forget the Tripawds Foundation can pay for his first rehab consultation too, so that will also put you on the right track.
I would love to take this back leg amputation 12 week course for my Priscilla oh, but I cannot afford it.
