🐾 LULILU LEGENDS | Meet Ollie
At 13 years young, Ollie the Border Collie is on a journey to keep doing what he loves, comfortably, confidently and at his own pace. 💙
Ollie was referred to us with suspected lumbosacral and/or hip osteoarthritis, with possible stifle disease. But his rehabilitation journey isn’t just about his physical health. Ollie is also understandably anxious about being touched, so building trust is just as important as building strength.
Our first goal? Confidence before conditioning.
We’re starting with gentle, weekly hydrotherapy sessions to support his mobility, muscle strength and comfort, while allowing Ollie to become familiar with the underwater treadmill in a calm, choice-led environment.
As Ollie becomes more comfortable, we’ll gradually introduce laser therapy to provide additional support for pain, inflammation and stiffness.
There’s no rushing this journey. Every session is guided by Ollie - his comfort, his confidence and how he feels afterwards. 🐶
Because rehabilitation isn’t always about pushing further.
Sometimes, it’s about taking one small step at a time. 💙
Welcome to the Lulilu Legends, Ollie. We’re so excited to be part of your journey. 🐾
