Ryker

"Ryker, my now 6-year-old Border Collie, was diagnosed with medial shoulder syndrome (MSS) in his right shoulder by Dr. Sherman Canapp last year. Ryker competed in agility and had struggled with weave poles for almost a year prior, but had shown no overt lameness other than one time when he came out of his crate, which prompted a visit to Dr. Canapp.

"Dr. Canapp was very thorough in his examination, diagnosis and treatment of Ryker’s MSS, which included radiofrequency treatment, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cells. Following surgery, Ryker completed about three months of rehabilitation and then three months of strength training. He is currently back to running agility. Amazingly, his weave-pole issues are resolved.

"I can’t thank Dr. Canapp and his team enough for their excellent treatment of Ryker and for giving us both a second chance at agility!"
