Chiropractic evaluation & adjustment (Medical Manipulation)
Incredibly restorative, veterinary medical manipulation (VMM) is the same as chiropractic adjustment for humans. Results can be immediate and amazing. No drug can do what an adjustment can do for patients - results can be immediate and life changing. Chiropractic adjustment has been called the "missing link" in joint health and mobility. All joints may be out of of alignment, not just the spine. But the spinal nerves control all body functions so the effect may be beyond just mobility.
P​reventive care is VERY important too. A chiropractic assessment can find and eliminate restrictions (sticky joints) reducing the wear and tear, arthritis and comfort limiting adaptations your dog has subconsciously made and can make a difference in athletic performance.

Your middle aged dog is compensating for all the jumps, tussles and other events of his youth. Your PUPPY has already probably put herself out of balance by the acrobatics she does on a daily basis. Your older dog certainly could use an evaluation - perhaps eliminating or reducing the need for chronic pain medications.
