“Jordan” canine fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE)
(I changed the date stamp so that Jordan’s progress can be viewed in order of her progress)
Jordan, a ten year old Doberman/Rottie.. had a fibrocartilaginous embolism aka FCE
on 8-13-07.. (she was rescued from Dobe Rescue in Fillmore, Ca., at 4 months old..
Dr. Pilch was wonderful and kept her for 4 days.. http://www.animalmedcenter.net/
On 8-29-07, she started twice a week at http://www.dogpaddlewellness.com
with Margret..
Today she stood! And walked with all fours while on the water treadmill… (for the first time since FCE)
First day at DogPaddle with Margret.. note the different look at her face a few weeks later.. below..
Her regular dinner after therapy.. In and Out or McDonalds..
Look how happy she is now.. this was 7th day at DogPaddle.. with her Pa, Robb..
Above photo was day one at DogPaddle..
The ball can now be pushed out from under her and she will stand for a few minutes.. The ball is also used with her bed pan..
Robb is barely holding her.. The ball does Robb good too..
