Erik's Physical Therapy

Good morning,

Catherine puts Erik through his physical therapy exercises at home in addition to taking him to a veterinary physical therapist.  This is all to help him recover from knee surgery last month.

In these images Catherine is using the jump poles that Erik is used to using in Agility trailing.  The pole height is set to six inches here for his therapy.
The objective is for Erik to step over, not hop over the jumps, and to use all four legs.  His surgery was on his right hind leg.
 As you can see in this video, Erik is doing this perfectly!  We are so pleased with his recovery.

:),
