Does My Dog Need Chiropractic?

Whether you are preparing your agility dog for their next event, maintaining mobility and comfort in an older dog or preventing musculoskeletal issues from developing in a young puppy, chiropractic care can help achieve enhanced health for your pet.

Signs that your dog may benefit from chiropractic care:

• Decreased stride length
• Stiffness
• Sitting with both rear legs off to one side on a constant basis
• Change in ability to manage stairs, jump on furniture or get in/out of vehicles
• Reluctance to engage in regular physical activity 
• Assymetrical posture
• Muscle tension, weakness or muscle wasting
• Stumbling on walks
• Side-winding or crabbing (irregular gait patterns)
• Discomfort or yelping when putting on or taking off collars or harnesses
