Nóra Tóth

I am Nóra Tóth, dog physiotherapist, habilitation dog trainer. Since I was a small child, we have always had four-legged family members, so I have had plenty of opportunity to learn about the body language and lifestyle of dogs and cats.

I worked as an outpatient and operating room assistant at the University of Veterinary Medicine Hospital for 6 years. This gave me an insight into different surgical techniques, which allowed me to better assess the rehabilitation process after surgery, as well as experience in outpatient care (accidents, fractures, first aid, etc.). Volvo was brought in during an overnight emergency and I adopted him almost immediately. He suffered a severe pelvic and elbow fracture in a car accident, unfortunately we had little time together due to his heart condition. He started me on the road to learning about musculoskeletal rehabilitation for dogs.

In 2013 I completed the training of the Hungarian Pet Physiotherapy Society as a dog physiotherapist. It is very important for me to keep up to date, so I try to participate as often as possible in various training courses, for example on rehabilitation or webinars on canine communication.

I have three dogs:

Bubbles, the therapy assistance dog, with whom we had little time to work due to a long illness. So he now spends time with children, the disabled and the elderly only rarely and sparingly.

Bizsu and I are participating in the Senior Family Dog Programme's dementia research, as he is 15 years old and living the happy retirement years of old age. We are actively involved in dementia habilitation, always with the help of the right professional.

Vegas is an 11 year old bull terrier mix who has given me lots of experience in dog allergies, gut problems, instinct management and behavioural therapy, and we have also tried our luck at several dog sports.

It is important to me to always gradually introduce my patients to physiotherapy tools and exercises in ways that are appropriate to the dog's communication and internal state.

Krisztina Debreceni

I am Kriszti Debreceni, dog physiotherapist and Hoopers instructor.

I've been an animal lover since childhood, and I've tried countless sports with my dogs over the past ten years.

In 2016, my dog Zoé came into my life, little did I know that she would change my life and determine my future career choice. The time I spent with her made me realise the importance of early detection of musculoskeletal problems and early rehabilitation, as a successful surgery is no guarantee of a full recovery.

In the summer of 2021 I completed the dog physiotherapist training course of the Therapy for Animals Foundation. The knowledge I have acquired is important and keeping it fresh is essential in today's world, so I am constantly training to ensure that our patients are provided with up-to-date knowledge.

My personal goal is to promote preventive exercise and rehabilitation of elderly patients in dogs.

Besides physiotherapy, I also train dogs; I give group obedience training and Hoopers training (remote control). I am also currently working with my vizslam, Zhivány, to promote Hoopers.

Szabrina Dobrovitz

I am Szabrina Dobrovitz, dog physiotherapist and veterinary assistant.

I have been passionate about animals for a long time, having started my career as a volunteer at a shelter in Szentendre. Later I started working as a veterinary assistant in a high-traffic animal hospital in Budapest.

In my work, I often encounter orthopaedic deformities resulting from trauma or genetic predisposition. These cases, as well as the musculoskeletal complaints of my own ageing puppy, have inspired me to explore the world of physiotherapy in more depth.

That's why I decided to train as a canine physiotherapist, to be able to do more for pets, to help rehabilitate patients, to contribute to their recovery and to gain a broader professional knowledge.

In 2023, after successfully completing the Vetrehab Canine Physiotherapist training, I joined the Pet Mobility Team with the long-term goal of helping as many dogs as possible to get back to a pain-free and good quality of life as soon as possible. It is very important to me to promote physiotherapy to both the veterinary profession and to the owners! I want to make the importance of prevention/prevention as widespread as possible!

Edina Biró

I am Edina Biró, dog physiotherapist and veterinary assistant.

Since I was a child, my love for animals has been a part of my life and I always knew I wanted to help them.

Since 2019, I have been working as a senior assistant in one of the country's best-equipped, busy animal hospitals, operating as a surgical and diagnostic centre. In my work, I see a lot of orthopaedic and surgical cases and follow the recovery process of small animals.

I completed my training as a canine physiotherapist at the Vetrehab training institute with excellent results and then joined the Pet Mobility Team. During my studies I was constantly visiting Pet Mobility to meet as many cases as possible.

My experience as a veterinary assistant has given me the professional knowledge that is essential for effective rehabilitation. I am particularly passionate about the treatment of musculoskeletal problems and spinal injuries, as my own dogs' history is closely linked to this.

I am currently the owner of 3 dachshunds.

Life is always challenging, and in the summer of 2023, my rescued dachshund Amyke became paralysed. That was when I really got to know the profession of physiotherapist. Amy taught me the importance of patience and that you can achieve anything if you are diligent and persistent. Amy is on her own after 1.5 years, it's been a long and bumpy road but it's been worth every minute. I am so grateful to life for being a part of her recovery.

My 16-year-old dog Chutak has a number of orthopaedic problems in old age, and I use this as an example to raise awareness of the importance of prevention so that our little pets can live as pain-free a life as possible in old age.

My newest puppy Jasper is a real little energy bomb. Our relationship didn't start off easy, he has had his social difficulties and I have plenty of fear aggression to deal with, but I believe I can get the best out of him. He was discharged because he was paralysed and I started his rehabilitation, which is ongoing. So life forged us together and then I adopted him.

They inspired me to understand the importance of physiotherapy on a deeper level and to help other owners find hope and solutions. Like them, I want to give my patients the experience of happy and pain-free movement so they can live a fulfilling life.
And as an owner, I know exactly how difficult and challenging it can be to rehabilitate a sick animal, which is perhaps why I can empathise even more with the owners who come to me.

Dorka Németh

Dorka Németh I am an agricultural engineer, veterinary assistant and dog physiotherapist.

I earned my degree in agricultural engineering at the Kaposvár campus of MATE University, where I studied equine anatomy, movement analysis and judging, among other subjects. This knowledge gave me a solid basis for the recognition of locomotor problems, which I can use in the field of canine physiotherapy. However, after obtaining my diploma, I had a void in my heart and knew that this was not the career that life had destined for me. I wanted to find a career where I could be actively involved in the daily lives of pets and contribute to their health. So life quickly took me towards animal health.

During my physiotherapy studies, I was employed at one of the country's most prestigious animal hospitals, where I work with many orthopaedic and surgical cases.

I graduated as a Canine Physiotherapist with distinction and then joined the Pet Mobility Team, where I had the opportunity to travel continuously during my studies, deepening my practical knowledge and professional experience through real cases.

We have always had four-legged companions in our family, which has taught us about responsible pet ownership. Currently, I have a giant schnauzer puppy, Zoi, as my companion, with whom we explore the joys of everyday life. Zoi's energetic nature inspires me every day and gives me the strength to do my work, because I can see how much it means to him to move and exercise together.

For me, the greatest joy is when I see the dogs happy and moving around again after rehabilitation, because I know that my efforts have really helped them.

These experiences have guided me to focus my work on improving the quality of life of pets, restoring the joy of exercise and prevention. I believe that a preventive approach, regular exercise and working together with owners will help prevent serious problems in the long term.

My goal is to contribute my professional knowledge and empathetic approach to help our patients live fuller, happier lives with their owners.
