What Our Happy Clients are Saying
“Our dog, Fletcher, is an 11+ year old Clumber Spaniel. He is a cancer survivor, and he beat Lymphoma and has been in remission since January of 2020! As he has aged, he began to feel sore and tired and unable to play with his two younger brothers. Then, we took him to see Rod at Canine Rehabilitation of Nashville, and he began water treadmill and laser therapy! That was over two years ago, and he still goes every week because he loves it, and it has helped him regain mobility, strength and confidence!!! He loves Rod, Alexa and all the people there! They treat him like a celebrity with treatments, massages, and encouragement every step of the way! Our family highly recommends canine rehab because we have our dog back!”

“Our Boxer/Pitbull, Lucco, has benefitted greatly from cold laser therapy and water treadmill sessions to help combat the effects of Degenerative Myelopathy. He is maintaining his muscle mass and mobility because of the care he receives from Rod and Alexa at Canine Rehab of Nashville.”

“Our Great Dane, Mia, loved seeing Rod and Alexa every week for almost two years. Her therapy sessions helped her arthritis and range of motion as she aged. I know our time spent at Canine Rehab of Nashville directly contributed to Mia living pain-free until almost 14 years old!”

“I consider myself so fortunate to have found Canine Rehab of Nashville when my first Old English Sheepdog, Garcia, was struggling with debilitating arthritis and in need of care. Rod Newman and his kind, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable staff have been such a godsend. Over the last 12 years, I have treated two beloved canine companions—Garcia and my beloved Major–with Rod and the results have been nothing short of outstanding. As a pet owner, there is nothing more comforting than knowing that my cherished pets are in such good and capable hands. How lucky we are that this much-needed resource exists in this area. Rod Newman and his staff are absolutely incredible and I cannot recommend Canine Rehab of Nashville highly enough. I would recommend Rod Newman and Canine Rehab of Nashville wholeheartedly and without reservation. Canine Rehab of Nashville may well be the best friend our best friends can have.“

“My dog, Sandy, was diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy, a progressive disease of the spinal cord. The staff at Canine Rehab has been such an incredible blessing to our family! Each staff member is knowlegable, compassionate, and positive! Sandy loves going to therapy, and her treatments have kept her mobile and active. Although we know there is no cure for Sandy, Canine Rehab is helping her live life to the fullest and helped our family enjoy our precious girl for almost a year after her diagnosis. With the help of Canine Rehab, we hope Sandy will be happy and active well into the future!”

“In 2008, Pirate, our beloved pitbull mix, began physical therapy with Rod Newman and Canine Rehabilitation of Nashville in Hendersonville. Pirate was 10 years old and had been diagnosed with hip dysplasia. It greatly improved his mobility and quality of life. Maggie and Millie, both pitbull mixes, rehabbed with CRN after cranial cruciate ligament surgery. Both regained strength and full range of motion thanks to Rod and his team. Our 17 year old, Astrid, visits CRC twice a week and has built muscle mass in her legs and regained mobility. We are so happy to have this amazing resource and the skilled, well trained, animal loving owner and staff.”

I highly recommend them.Posted on Jen TaylorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are in the Nashville area I highly recommend Canine Rehabilitation of Nashville for your pet, they see dogs and cats! They have been fantastic to my mom and her dog Tonka during his IVDD healing journey. They treat all kinds of other conditions too, such as arthritis, fractures, wobblers, hip dysplasia etc. I’m highly considering taking our oldest girl Tutu there for her luxating patellas and just an arthritis preventative since she’s getting up there in age. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, they have no problem answering our hundreds of questions! They also have cold drinks in the lobby 😆🙌🏻 I seriously can’t say enough good things about this place! 10/10Posted on David ShackelfordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
