Hi Debbie,

Have never used one personally but have friends in th US who absolutely swear by them - from the excellent results they've experienced I'd certainly give it a go if any of my dogs had an ongoing problem that wasn't being resolved.

Good luck and best wishes, Teri ;)

I've used an Osteopath with great success.

If you ring Stuart McGregor, he trains Osteopaths to work with animals.  Maybe he could suggest someone in your area?

My dog regularly visits a qualified chiro on a quarterly basis.  As a performance dog I use it for preventive measures rather than curative.

IME by the time you realise something is wrong it has been wrong for some time and is more difficult to sort.  This way I can nip any potential problems in the bud.
