Following surgery, rehabilitation continues when the patient returns home, by providing owner education in the aftercare of the surgery, which may include icing, passive range of motion, and turning or changing the position of the dog if it is laying down for long periods. Following suture removal, further rehabilitation such as hydrotherapy can begin.
