Hello.
This is my new forum and I mostly will be discussing canine chiropractic.
I am the author of The Well Adjusted Dog--Canine Chiropractic Methods YOU Can Do. So feel free to ask my anything.

Best regards,

You can download a great chiropractic technique that is used by veterinarians and chiropractors worldwide that is used to prevent hip dysplasia. First, the move is detailed on a free link on the bottom of www.vetrolaser.com. The link is free and it really details the adjustment which you can do. Next, a short video demonstration of that sequence is on www.vetrolaser.com then click 'news and announcements' then video clip number 4. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Can we ask general Chiropractic questions here?

Certainly.

I've tried Chiropractic adjustments with my dogs before, as we work in Schutzhund and there is quite a bit of impact and jarring the dogs go through on a daily basis.

What has been frustrating for me, is finding a Chiro to treat the dogs. I can find several, but every one is different in what they do, and some of them just plain see like quacks. Sometimes I see a big difference when I leave, and sometime they never touch the dog at all but claim they have adjusted him. ??

Anyways, how to you suggest someone find a QUALIFIED person to work on their dogs? Is there a National organization for K9 Chiropractic work, or is it just something DCs do on the side?

Thanks.

Hello Michelle,

To find a qualifed, certified animal chiropractor in your state visit the American Veterinary Chiropractic Assoiciations' website which is www.animalchiropractic.org Then click 'referrals' and scroll down to find your state. They also list their current certified animal chiropractors by country. Best of luck.

What if the chiropractor you've been referred to by a friend is not listed? Does that mean they are NOT certified?

No, it doesn't necessarily mean that. Directly ask the chiropractor specifically where he/she received training and if they're certified by the AVCA or a similar program. A similar program is from the Parker College of Chiropractic in Dallas, TX.

Thank you. He's the closest in the area and I think any other chiro is about 2 hours away.
