Physical Rehabilitation Facility Serving Warren County & Surrounding Areas
Welcome To
The #AlphaPack
Just like humans require physical therapy, canine rehabilitation offers similar benefits for your dog. Our focus is on improving mobility, strength, and stability to help your dog achieve their functional goals and get them moving again.
As a dedicated establishment serving Warren, Sussex, Hunterdon, West Morris, and neighboring areas in Pennsylvania, we offer a wide range of convenient options to ensure that you and your dog receive the necessary treatment.
During your visits to our facility, we will educate you on various techniques and exercises that you can incorporate into your dog's care plan to support their recovery.
We also offer a range of resources to empower you in assisting your dog's healing process.
What makes Alpha Animal Rehab different?
The field of canine rehab is relatively new in the pet care industry.
While more and more vets are referring their patients to rehab, pet parents all too often get the recommendation of crate rest and pain meds. While these are important recommendations in some situations and often for the short-term, many diagnoses call for a more hands-on holistic approach.
That’s where canine rehabilitation comes in!
Canine Rehabilitation
Canine rehab is built on the principles of human physical rehab and applied to our furry counterparts, and we see terrific results! Alpha Animal Rehab and Fitness focuses on helping dogs regain their independence so they can experience their best quality of life with their humans. As our dogs age into their senior years, parents are often told that the decrease in mobility is just part of aging, but there is so much that can be done to help these sweet pups!
A Long-Term Approach
What we provide here at Alpha Animal Rehabilitation and Fitness is a long-term approach to dog health management. Arthritis is a normal part of aging for dogs, just as it is for humans. We take what we know works in the human world and educate pet parents on how to best help their companions.
Our goal is to get your dog out of pain, get them moving better, build up their lost strength, and teach you the most beneficial ways to engage your pup in a regular exercise routine. This doesn’t just mean “go for more walks” either. Walks can be fun, engaging, and great exercise, but no amount of walking will build the strength and stability necessary during this important phase of life.
Therefore, our goal is to help more dogs get out and be active with their humans and live their best lives through their golden years!

Learn More About Helping Your Canine
Canine Arthritis
Arthritis is something that we commonly hear about with our senior dogs, but do you know the signs to tell if your dog may have osteoarthritis?
CCL Tears In Canines
Were you just told by your vet that your dog has a CCL tear or do you suspect your dog might have one? It happens to be one of the most common orthopedic injuries in dogs!
Hip Dysplasia
Have you noticed your pup not being able to get up as easily from lying down? Or maybe they don’t want to participate in activities they once enjoyed doing with you? Canine hip dysplasia may be to blame.
Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD)
Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) is one of the most common causes of back pain in canines and can lead to reduced mobility and quality of life. But just because it is common does not mean it should be taken lightly!

Never new that Rehabilitation was possible for pets but I am extremely glad there is. The care that the staff gave to my Chocolate Lab " Tank " was really great. He came in with a severe pinched nerve in his back leg. I thought … More he might not walk normally again. After three months of therapy not only is he back to walking normally he is also back to his Hunting form. Never give up on your pets health. Thank you to all the staff at Alpha Rehab and fitness can't praise you enough!!!! Mark Keenan

In September, 2022, TJ, our 6 year old dachshund had an episode of IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease) which caused temporary paralysis of his back legs. He was medically managed, and started gaining strength after several weeks. We carried … More him outside to do his business but still didn’t have the strength in his back legs. We bought a harness to aid him in walking which helped. By the end of October, 2022, we still weren’t seeing the progress we had hoped for so we contacted Alpha Rehab. In speaking with Anthony, we felt very reassured and confident that TJ would be successful in having a full recovery. The entire team was compassionate and caring. TJ had physiotherapy treatments 2 times a week for 4 weeks, to include massage, laser, infrared, and underwater treadmill therapy, and was fitted with a proper harness for both the front and backend. Over a couple of months he did fantastic with the harness and eventually was ready to go without any extra support of his back legs.

It is a pleasure to write this review. Almost five years ago, my dog Crackerjack (Jack for short) awoke paralyzed in both rear legs due to a ruptured disc in his spine. Thanks to the dedication and expertise of
Alpha ARF, six months later … More he was walking again. Week after week, month after month, they moved his rear legs on the underwater treadmill, mimicking his stride, to help him develop new neural pathways for walking. They have him exercises, massages, and electromagnetic and laser treatments. Once he was walking on his own, they added appropriate obstacle courses to further develop
his muscles, balance, and agility. Everything they did was tailored to his changing needs. Here we are, years later, and Jack is thriving. To maintain his abilities, we continue our weekly PT sessions, and the staff are every bit as kind and caring and attentive to his needs as when we first met. They answer my questions, share their knowledge, and offer advice and suggestions about his therapy. I always look
forward to being there, and the proof of the pudding is that Jack loves it too. He can't wait to get in
the door! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
