About 4Dvets

A Vision for Canine Mobility

At 4Dvets, we believe in a future where every dog can move freely—without pain or limitations. Our mission is to revolutionise mobility diagnostics by equipping veterinarians and researchers with the tools to detect and address movement disorders at an early stage.

Our story begins with Dr. med. vet. Dipl. Patrick Blättler Monnier, a veterinarian and researcher specialising in functional orthopaedics and kinematics. Years of research led him to identify a critical gap in veterinary medicine:

> Many treatments focus on symptom relief rather than addressing the root cause of mobility issues

> Subtle movement abnormalities often go unnoticed until they develop into chronic conditions

> There was no objective, data-driven method to analyse and monitor mobility changes at an early stage

To fill this gap, Dr. med. vet. Dipl. Patrick Blättler Monnier developed a science-based, preventative approach – a method that allows veterinarians to identify mobility problems before they lead to long-term limitations or pain.

This vision became the foundation of 4Dvets, a company that combines veterinary innovation with cutting-edge technology.

Our Values & Philosophy

Everything we do is guided by
four core values:

High-Precision Diagnostics

Our technology enables objective, detailed movement assessments to detect musculoskeletal and orthopaedic issues at an early stage.

Scientific
Approach

We collaborate with leading specialists in orthopaedics and biomechanics to develop research-based solutions that enhance clinical diagnostics.

Evidence-Based Objectivity

LupoGait provides precise, reproducible data, ensuring reliable diagnoses—free from subjective interpretation.

A Clear,
Unifying Goal

At the heart of everything we do is a passion for improving canine well-being, helping dogs live longer, healthier, and more active lives.

Our Mission

We are redefining canine mobility diagnostics by providing veterinarians and researchers with innovative, data-driven tools that enable early detection, prevention, and long-term health solutions.

By combining veterinary expertise with cutting-edge technology, 4Dvets is shaping the future of canine mobility — one step at a time.
