Everyone is always learning.
The photos below show a patient who survived a road accident and extensive reconstructive surgery. Even during recovery, he was very happy, calm, and kind. Wags and Whiskers rescued him, covered the surgery, and placed him in his forever home.
Many breeds of dogs today require quality-of-life procedures. In brachiocephalic breeds like this, Nasal reconstruction and soft palate reduction provide significant quality of life improvement, allowing them to breathe, move, and live well.
Emergency call after a horse was caught in a barbed wire fence. The doctor reconstructed the damaged tissue leaving a subtle but cool scar.
All of our bodies have a nervous system. This system sends signals to every part of the body to control what we do, how, and why. When the body has limited functions it can be a sign that the nervous system isn't able to signal the body correctly. The animal below is receiving acupuncture therapy to activate and correct nerve function, promote neurodegeneration, increase stem-cell production, and release tension/pain.
Providing animals with functional medicine such as acupuncture, chiropractic, and nutrition can lead to a long quality of life.
Our doctor finds any and every way to care for the patient. Whether they fit on the surgery table or not. The photo is of a full grown 185lbs GREAT DANE
