PineRidge Pet Care offers
evaluations by Amy Bear DVM, CCRP who develops
a specific rehabilitation program for each patient. Amy is a
Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner (CCRP) through the
University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine and
Department of Physical Therapy. Amy has practiced as a veterinarian
in small animal medicine for over 15 years with PineRidge Pet Care
(formerly Anoka West Pet Hospital).
The goal of physical rehabilitation is
returning the patient to normal function and previous level of
activity. We incorporate range of motion, therapeutic exercises,
functional activities, pain relief and safety of home environment,
and emphasize the importance of owner involvement in each step of
the pet’s recovery. Our facility has a rehabilitation therapy room
and underwater treadmill. Clients are encouraged to attend and
participate in rehabilitation sessions. We work with clients to
develop comprehensive home therapy programs, as well as offer
extended-stay boarding for patients in need of this service.
