Why refer to Canine Sapien?

Doctor of Physical Therapy expertise

TJ brings his physical therapy education and specialized canine rehabilitation training to individualized treatment planning.

Hands-on, one-on-one care

Treatment focuses on the dog's specific mobility challenges, functional goals, and response to therapy.

Collaborative veterinary care

Canine Sapien works alongside the patient's veterinarian and follows medical clearance and treatment restrictions.

Convenient care options

In-home canine rehabilitation is available now in eligible Front Range communities. A dedicated Erie rehabilitation facility is coming soon.

Patients who may benefit

Common referral situations. TJ does not diagnose veterinary conditions — rehabilitation works under the veterinarian's medical direction.

Post-operative orthopedic rehabilitation
Mobility limitations and altered gait
Age-related weakness and reduced mobility
Functional limitations related to osteoarthritis
Strength, balance, and coordination deficits
Selected neurological rehabilitation needs, based on veterinary direction and clinical suitability

Colorado veterinary medical clearance

Colorado requires veterinary medical clearance before a physical therapist begins physical therapy treatment on an animal (C.R.S. 12-285-116(4)(b)). Canine Sapien coordinates with the referring veterinarian to confirm clearance and relevant medical guidance before treatment begins.
