My advice is no substitute for a trained canine physiotherapist and it goes with out saying an ortho specialist.
I will definetly have her vet give us the referral to the ortho specialist. I think I have a rotation at work coming up either in October or November where I will be able to take a weekday off. My other little one needs a dental, which I'm planning on doing around that time as well. I will definetly ask about any physiotherapists around the area as well. Hopefully there's one in the city. It's not a large city but if they have an orthopedic surgeon and they have a specialized dental veterinarian, I'm sure they'll have a therapist.

I just saw you're from Ontario. So is my Olivia.
