Two-year-old male golden retriever

 

 

A two-year-old male golden retriever came to be massaged due to past hip surgery.  The hope was to get him stronger so he could have his other hip done.  Maria worked him on for three weeks one time a week.  In the between treatments the owners were given homework to do which helped continue the massage benefits.  When the dog went to the vet the doctor was amazed at his progress.  He could not tell which hip had already been operated on.  He had no limping in either leg and the range of motion was equal in both hind legs.  Not only was the surgery leg better but the veterinarian determined that the dog did not need to have the other hip operated on.
