Hydrotherapy is a medical treatment that requires veterinary oversight to ensure your dog's safety and the appropriateness of the treatment for their specific condition.
If your veterinarian determines that hydrotherapy isn't appropriate for your dog, we'll work with them to explore alternative treatment options or address any concerns.
The consent form is typically valid for 6 months, but we may require updated consent if your dog's condition changes significantly.
No, we cannot begin any hydrotherapy treatment without proper veterinary consent. This is for your dog's safety and our professional standards.
If your dog's health status changes, please inform us immediately. We may need updated veterinary clearance before continuing treatment.
The cost of the veterinary examination varies by clinic. Most vets charge their standard exam fee for completing the consent form.
