Tasha

Tasha – Exercise Prescription 29/2/24 Tasha was seen 29/02/24 for her initial session where by she had a recent CrCr surgery to her right hindlimb. Tasha has improved in her lameness score and is 1/5 lame on her left forelimb and right hindlimb. Sit posture shows a laterally placed right hindlimb – markedly improved since last session with 70% correct and straight. We are now looking to work on her rising from the sit to the stand, pushing off both hindlimbs. Tashas back pain is also reduced, there are still some areas of discomfort especially around her areas of spondylosis, but this is positive. Points Discussed Calendar –Keep up with the calendar, remember to be home by the time any scuffing of toes appears as this indicates fatigue. Food – Keep weighing out Tashas food ration, remember to add in allowance for her treats to enable you to do the exercises. Excessive weight will overload her joints and reduce her ability to move freely. Kerbs – Use kerbs to watch for hindlegs stepping up and onto the kerb, is it the same foot each time ? does the natural rhythm of the walk change (get too fast or too slow?). Aim for 10x up and down kerbs. horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162 horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162 horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162 horsestohoundsphysio@gmail.com www.horsestohoundsphysio.co.uk 07729002162
