Murphy is almost 5 weeks post-surgery and continues to improve. He is now eating two meals a day; although being kenneled is still a struggle. He did well at his rehab appointment this week. He was able to go a full ten minutes without rest in the hydra-tank (pictured). Last week he began gait retraining using a cavaletti course (pictured) and a rocker board for stability. We are going to attempt to make one of each of these tools to use in our home therapy treatment. His walks have been increased to three a day for fifteen minutes each or twice a day for twenty minutes each--if we are limited by daylight. A new exercise was introduced, which we will add to his repertoire.
