10/3/14  Joy Update! –  Dr. Kern from “Pawsitive Steps Rehabilitation Therapy for Pets” (http://www.pawsitivestepsrehab.com/ ), offered to help Joy with some therapy. She did acupuncture and cold laser on Joy tonight after assessing her pain. She has offered to donate physical therapy for Joy once or twice a week!! We are so thankful for her expertise, her skill, her support, and especially her compassion. Aaron Fortin from NBS Rescue was also involved in assisting with the therapy tonight. He was giving Joy all kinds of loving and comforting her during the procedure.
Dr. Kern adopted the famous “Hercules” from us a couple years ago after his legs had been intentionally broken by his previous owner at 3 months old. Hercules went from not being able to use his back legs at all, to running and playing and walking again! Just amazing!!! I think Dr. Kern might have fallen in love just a weee bit with Joy during her session! ~ gina
