Breezie Demo Winner of the Month
Our January Breezie Demo Award Winner is Rumba, the companion of Rhonda Cowern, PT, DPT, Cert. DN, a physical therapist and the owner of Moab Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation in Moab, Utah.
Rumba is about 4 years old and is a mixed breed Kelpie/Shepherd found on the Indian reservation south of Moab, Utah.
"Rumba went blind soon after birth and came into my life in March 2020," Rhonda says. "I had extra time to teach her lots of commands to get her to trail run and mountain bike with myself and our dog pack. She is a registered ESA (Emotional Support Animal) inspiring my clients at Moab Physical Therapy and Rehab Clinic."
In recognition of this honor, Rumba will receive a $50 gift certificate from Jiminy's good for any of their treats or dog food. Congratulations, Rumba!
