REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS

My 4yr old Frenchton had surgery to correct her luxating patella. Throughout the three weeks after surgery she would toe-touch, but ultimately refused to use her hind leg for normal use.  Her progress after just one session was huge.  She consistently used her hind leg and was able to regain confidence and strength in that leg.  During her follow-up visit with the surgeon, he was extremely pleased and surprised by her progress.  She is currently back to...

Staff was great and I was so happy to see my old pup feeling better in the walking tank. After debating if it was right for her, we brought my 14 yr old dog here. Her leg has some issues and we are fitting a brace (this place isn't expensive but the brace is. You should know if you need one. But not everyone will) I really wish we did this sooner. She slept so soundly last night after her first rehab appointment.  We are going back... Read More »

They have been with him every step of the way in getting him comfortable with the equipment and therapies and are truly devoted o his care. Every member of the staff treats the animals...

We brought our 12 year old yellow lab Gracie to Alpha Animal Rehabilitation and Fitness for some "wheels" to help her get around more easily with a lame left rear leg. From the moment we met Nora & Anthony we knew we were in excellent hands. They knew the emotions associated with watching our dog age and were incredibly gentle and patient. Nora examined her back legs and was able to determine that Gracie still had feeling in her left leg... Read More »

My 12 year old Westie was having severe problems with her back legs and hips.  She was in a lot of pain due to arthritis.  Medicine only helped a little but the staff zeroed right in on a course of treatment that has changed her life dramatically.  We have our Bailey back!

I'm a first time dog owner and my 9-month-old puppy had to have his femoral head removed in May. My little sweetie Bowie has been going to this facility for rehabilitation and to progress his mend to the point of full capability to run,  jump and play.  The dedication of Anthony and Tammy has been nothing less than fantastic. 4 months post surgery and Bowie doing great. I am so thankful for this business to be available in Warren county!

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 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... Read More »
