Jess 
Office manager

Jess is our mixed breed elderly dog (Aussie Shepard, Kelpie, Mastiff, Pitbull, Pointer - who knows!).  Her experience in physical therapy comes from her fused knees and low back which cause her to walk a bit funny, also known as the "Jiggy Jig".  She knows the importance of movement first hand to manage her arthritis.  

Regardless, she is one happy dog and will give you lots of tail wags and licks if you get close!  If it's dog therapy you need, we have just the pup.
