Hi Stormy and others:
We have a 5 year old cocker spaniel who was just in the hospital in August for slipped disks. They put him on a course of steroids and pain medicine that got him back to semi walking, but he really just hops with his hind legs. Has anyone else ever had their dogs hop, with little movement of the back legs, after one of these episodes? We’re wondering if we should try acupuncture, but after reading the entries on here maybe a chiropractor could help? If anyone has any advice/stories it would really help!
Thanks,
Claudia

Stormy,
My little wirehaired dachchund slipped a disc in his lower back this last tuesday. My vet prescribed bed rest and an anti inflamitory. I saw that you took yours to a chiropractor. I would love to get the name, number and location of yours. I want to see if I could maybe find a chiropractor in my area that could help.
Thank so much.

I am faced with with a recurring problem myself. Standard treatments have not work so far and I’m making an appointment for a chiroprator this week. Has anyone heard anything about acupuncture for slipped disks?

Hi,
I have a 11 year old cocker spaniel.
He has a slip disc and was given Remadyl to help. He had one about 8 months ago and he was back to his usual happy self in about two days. It has been 5 days this time and he does not want to move. How long do others feel this lasts?

Dear Stormy-
I have a 2 and 1/2 year old boxer named Gus. It was determined last year that he has a severe case of hip dysplasia and spindilosis. The vet said that it was the worst he had seen in a dog Gus’ age. Recently he has been having lots of problems with his hips. Gus can’t walk up and down the stairs with out being in great pain. He basically can’t do anything without being in pain. He is normally a very active dog, but can’t even run after his frisbee without yelping. Gus is currently on anti-inflamatories, glucosamine chews and pain medication, but nothing is working. I was thinking about chiropractics, but wasn’t sure if there where any in my area. I live in Lawrence, KS. Please help Gus and me!!!
Thanks-
Kara

I would certainly try a chiropractor first. It sounds like something they might be able to help with.
