Walking Paws Rehab

There's a reason Walking Paws has a 5 star overall review: they're amazing at what they do and incredibly compassionate toward your four-legged friend! My cattle dog sidekick tore her CCL (doggo version of an ACL) last spring and required surgery--the vet recommended Walking Paws for her rehab and after over a year of taking her to the Boulder location, I can say without a doubt that it was THE BEST decision for getting Stella back on her feet and returning to cattle dog adventure mode. The entire team in Boulder is an awesome group of individuals who make you feel like family and I'd like to especially give kudos to Angie Besel who has been working with us throughout the entire process (our initial PT had a kiddo!)--she has done a phenomenal job with Stella and truly emulates the level of care and knowledge that has become synonymous with the Walking Paws brand. Getting your dog back on their feet after a procedure can be daunting, but Walking Paws really does make a tremendous difference! **And no I was not paid for this review--it really has been THAT positive for Stella and our family.

We have had the best experience at walking paws. My dog used to be super anxious at the vet. She now actually feels comfortable enough to sleep during laser therapy and massage.. Angela has been so amazing with her and made her feel incredibly comfortable. Could not recommend them more!!

Dr. Bradleigh Vahl has been extraordinary. From the first appointment, it was clear how knowledgeable and thorough she is. She asks incredibly detailed questions and is genuinely curious about every aspect of my dog’s healing. I always leave feeling like nothing was rushed and nothing was overlooked. Pretzel has done physical therapy with her after knee surgery for a luxating patella, and she has also supported us through a scary episode that seemed neurological. She has guided him through acupuncture, laser, ultrasound, water therapy, and strength training, and she knows exactly when to push and when to slow things down. What means the most to me is how she is with him. She is warm, encouraging, and clearly loves what she does. Pretzel lights up when he sees her. That alone tells me he feels safe. Walking Paws as a whole is a wonderful place. It genuinely feels calm, welcoming, and restorative. I am so thankful for the level of care we have received.

Mr. Lucky has been going to Walking Paws Rehab for 1 year and 5 months, and at 16½ years old, he is doing remarkably well — entirely because of the incredible care he receives there. The therapists and techs are truly exceptional. I want to personally thank Bradleigh, Kerry, Amelia, Allison, Whitney, Aspen, Janet, Molly, and Angie for their dedication, expertise, and genuine compassion. Every single one of you has played a role in helping Mr. Lucky maintain his strength, mobility, and quality of life. You treat him like your own, and that level of commitment makes all the difference. I am deeply grateful for this team and highly recommend Walking Paws to anyone who wants the very best care for their pet.

We had the very best experience at Walking Paws as our Bernese mountain dog recovered from knee surgery. They are experts in their craft and exceptional in their care and service. Our dog responded well to the exercises they provided for us. It felt like home in their office and like family in their care.

I'd give Walking Paws 10 stars if I could! They have been the most amazingly professional, kind, caring, sweet people - and my dog loves going there. His first visit he could barely use his hind legs, after a month of various therapies he is now using both legs and feet and continuing to improve with every visit. Shadow loves Walking Paws (and so do I)!

I have been incredibly impressed with this place. They show genuine compassion and have done an amazing job at rehabbing my doggy. Of course results are not guaranteed, but my guy came in totally down on his hind end and after several rehab sessions he is walking again and is close to being his old self. I would recommend them highly. My rehab specialist is Dr. Amber and she is the most amazing person, she knows her stuff and has a love of her profession that shows in the quality of her care, and how she feels so rewarded by seeing the results of her care.
