About WAG: Whole Animal Gym

WAG
Whole Animal Gym stands as Philadelphia's first and finest specialized veterinary care facility, established in 2010 by Dr. Christina L. Fuoco. It focuses on rehabilitation, pain management, and fitness for pets. The clinic merges modern Western medicine with traditional Eastern practices, offering treatments like hydrotherapy, acupuncture, LASER, and ultrasound. Dr. Fuoco has expanded her expertise beyond WAG by working with the Philadelphia Zoo and mentoring veterinary students.

WAG is known for creating a stress-reduced environment with non-slip recycled rubber flooring and plush pet beds, promoting relaxation for the pets during their treatments. The clinic encourages owners to take an active role in their pet's recovery process.
