dc.description.abstract Paraplegic patients have always been ideal candidates for physiotherapy due to their body's inability to recover on its own. A total of 60 paraplegic dogs without deep pain in the hindlimbs caused by discal hernia or thoraco-lumbar fractures underwent physiotherapy sessions: manual therapy (massage), electrostimulation (10–20 minutes with possible repetition on the same day), ultrasound therapy, laser therapy, hydrotherapy, and assisted gait in supportive devices or on treadmills to stimulate and relearn walking, which was the main focus of the study. After 125 to 320 physiotherapy sessions, 35 dogs (58.33%) developed spinal walking and were able to walk without falling or falling only sometimes in the case of a quick look with a lack of coordination between the thoracic and pelvic limbs or difficulties in turning, especially when changing direction, but with recovery of the quadrupedal position in less than 30 seconds. en_US
