neck pain in dogs - dog chiropractor south shore boston, boston, cape cod, nantucket

The muscles of the dog's neck travel down to the shoulder. Many times dogs with neck pain have a problem in the shoulder as well. As you can also see these muscles tie into a wide area of the neck so often there are subluxations [ spinal bones that are not moving correctly irritating nerves ] within the neck that can cause neck pain. Lets not forget that 60 percent of a dogs wt. is usually on the front end so even if there is a hind end problem it can create a neck issue secondarily.
