← Back to the team Dash, the office dog at Lodestar Physical Therapy

I started my life in the hot AZ sun, but moved to the big mountains of UT when I was a tiny pup. When I turned three, I found my bestest fren and favorite hooman, Isaac, and we’ve been attached at the hip ever since! Being a Dogtor is a ruff job, but I’m an expert at hiking, camping, and taking long naps in the sun. If Isaac is there, I am there too—it’s the law!

When I’m at the office, I make sure to greet every single person who walks in because I am very professional and like to be helpful. I specialize in getting everyone’s attention with my loudest, squeakiest toys and I never, ever turn down a belly rub. If you have some treats, I can see you for a check-up right now!

I love helping cheer people up who come in sad and hurting.

I specialize in Pawsitivity this means: Belly Rub Procurement & Logistics (A 100% success rate), Holistic Mood Elevation (with my signature goofy head rest, sleeping positions or a loud squeaky!)

Conditions I enjoy treating are meeting fatigue, ruff day-itis and low oxytocin levels.

I love meeting all the people who come in. I get to make everyone happy, get lots of scritches and rubs. I even get treats! the best part is making everyone happy!

Experience: D.O.G.- Doctor of Glee & Board-Certified Good Boy

Core Value: Nap Hard, Play Hard and get all the pets – I have to make sure no head goes unscratched and no belly goes un-rubbed

Favorite Quote: “Be the person your dog thinks you are.” — C.J. Frick

When I am not working, I love hiking, camping, sniffing flowers and going on long car rides!

What patients say

One of the highlights of visiting Lodestar is being greeted by Dash, his friendly therapy dog, who is always by his side and brings a special warmth to every appointment. The combination of Isaac’s expertise and the welcoming presence of Dash creates an environment where you feel both comfortable and motivated to reach your goals!

~ Traci

I have seen dramatic improvements in just a few visits with him. So not only is his treatment effective, he is also a joy to be around, and his “assistant” Dash the dog, is there to provide endless tummy scruffs and moral support.

I strongly recommend his services & atmosphere!

~ Marti D

Adding to the charm and warmth of each session was Dash, Isaac’s delightful dog, whose presence was a comforting and cheerful one. Dash’s absence in that last appointment made me realize how integral he had become to the healing atmosphere Isaac created.

Isaac, along with his great pup, has set a remarkable standard for what physical therapy should be: compassionate, effective, and sincerely attentive to the experience of the patient. I am truly thankful for the high caliber of care received and would recommend Isaac to anyone in need of physical therapy, with the added joy of meeting Dash, the four-legged healer in residence.
