The Royal Veterinary College (RVC) is one of the world’s leading veterinary institutions, renowned for its advanced research and clinical services. RVC’s rehabilitation department identified the need for a specialised treadmill to support their rehabilitation programmes for canine patients. After thorough consideration, they chose the Zebris CanidGait treadmill, a cutting-edge piece of equipment designed specifically for veterinary use.
The Journey to Acquisition
RVC was already familiar with the Zebris brand and the capabilities of the CanidGait treadmill. The department was clear on what they needed to advance their rehabilitation services and improve patient outcomes. Their next step was to ensure they had the right partner to facilitate the purchase and installation of this specialised equipment.
The Royal Veterinary College reached out to HaB direct, a trusted supplier with a reputation for delivering high-quality installations and customer support. The RVC team engaged in detailed discussions with HaB to confirm the specifications and pricing of the CanidGait treadmill. With funding secured, the order was placed in June 2023, setting the stage for the installation.
