Rooney is a sweet, eight year old, Keeshond who frequents Maple Knoll Veterinary Clinic. In May, Rooney was diagnosed with a torn cruciate ligament in both back legs. Dr. Julie performed Rooney's first cruciate repair surgery on June 12th on his right leg, which was the worse of the two. Currently, Rooney is recuperating from the surgery and preparing to undergo a second cruciate repair surgery on his rear left leg.
As part of Rooney's recovery, he is receiving Companion Laser Therapy treatments two to three times per week. Not only does the laser therapy help Rooney recover more quickly by reducing pain and inflammation, it also stimulates hair growth so the fur that was removed for surgical sanitation is growing back very quickly!
