Shirby suffered a vertrebal column fracture and had received treatment at a different clinic. As he hadn't made any progress he eventually was transferred to the Dog Care Clinic.
We have an area for our special needs dogs like Shirby disigned to fulfill their requirements. We also have keepers providing them daily with all necessary therapies. These include physio- and hydrotherapy as well as massages and quality time spent together.
Eventhough Shirby will never walk we will not give up! The ongoing therapies improve his metabolism and build muscles. The dogs become stronger, feel better and their overall condition increases.
Update March 2023: What a tragedy. shirby got bitten by a cobra and despite all efforts passed... we are incredibly sad.
