Welcome Dr. Zenoni!
Where
do TOPS clients come from?
Naturally, most of TOPS clients come from the greater Chicago area.
You may be surprised, however, at the number of clients that seek
our services from out of state. Here is a current map of the
location of TOPS' US clients. Not included below is the fact
that we also have had clients from outside the US, including both
Canada and Bermuda.
Why choose
"TOPS"?
TOPS Vet
Rehab's doors opened in August 1998 at a time when veterinary
rehabilitation was practically unheard of. Since that time,
TOPS has become one of the world's more recognized names in
veterinary rehabilitation. As a result, TOPS clients come from literally all
over the country, and some from outside the country.
If you choose TOPS, your dog will be
evaluated by a licensed veterinarian,
trained in rehabilitation, veterinary
acupuncture and animal
chiropractic. As well, while some treatments are performed by our veterinarians, and some are performed by our Treatment Specialists, the treatment plan will be developed and
overseen by the veterinarian. This is critical in the case of
geriatric dogs, dogs with additional medical conditions, or simply
for peace of mind.
If you are looking for a veterinary
rehabilitation center, we welcome you to call and get a chance to
learn more about our services that the types of treatment
options that may be able to help your pet.

Featured Case - "Ezra" Blinn
|
|
Many of us dread the thought of exercising - it's not much fun. Well, meet
Ezra, a 4 year old Papillon from central Indiana. Exercise is not just fun, it's
an adventure! Ezra, one of the most charming guys you'll ever meet, came to TOPS
because he was refusing to jump in agility training and competition. His rehab
treatment started in January 2008, when this six pound tracking, agility and
obedience participant traveled with his mom Karen, to find out what his issues
were. Prior to the evaluation, his x-rays were reviewed, which showed a tipped
sacrum. During the exam, the following was also found: 1) he was
tender and had inflammation of the muscles in his back; 2) he had carpal
hyper-extension; 3) his tensor fascia latae muscle was strained, 4) he was
kyphotic (roachy) in his mid back, and 5) he also had lost proprioception in his
rear limbs (meaning he didn't know where his feet where in space). The suggested
treatment plan included exercise, continuing his existing chiropractic
treatments, and massage.

TOPS' Hydrotreadmill First in the World for Canine use
When TOPS built it's pool and installed the world's first hydro-treadmill used specifically for dogs, we were sure it would be a big part of
our rehab treatments. We just didn't know how big. In fact, when we expanded our facility
in 2002, we included two underwater treadmills to keep up with the
demand,
which have been used tens of thousands of times since the first one was
installed. These treadmills have played an enormous part in the success of each of our Walk of Fame cases. Numerous other facilities
around the country have bought or are in the process of buying a
treadmill. We're glad to see that more and more dogs across the
country will be able to benefit from this type of therapy.
