agility dog with shoulder and front leg problems- dog chiropractor cape cod, boston, south shore boston.

Border Collie Temperament, Personality, Behavior, Traits, and Characteristics, by Michele Welton. Copyright © 2000-2012Agility dogs can easily develop shoulder, elbow and carpal issues from doing weave poles. Once this occurs you may notice that your dog is relucant to do the weaves. Often chiropractic adjustments to these areas and upper back along with exercises to improve strength and coordination will help prevent re- occurance.

Shoulder problems in dogs - chiropractor for dogs boston, south shore, cape cod ,nantucket

 Sometimes shoulder issues can eminate from the spine ( upper back ) . Many of the muscles that attach to the shoulder originate on the spine so subluxations and muscle strain can limit shoulder movement and cause lameness.
Please contact me if ur dog is suffering from this issue, i would be happy to discuss on the phone or email.

Dog with back pain - Dog Chiropractor Boston, Cape Cod, South Shore Boston



 Simple, Gentle Stretches You Can Complete in Minutes a Day
There are three areas of your dog’s body for which stretching is especially beneficial – the hips, shoulders and back.
The following stretches, done slowly and gently, are well tolerated by most dogs. However, if you don’t feel confident in your ability to do the stretches, consider asking your vet or a small animal chiropractor demonstrate the stretches for you so you can do them at home.
Instructions for most of these stretches have your dog standing, but you can also do them with your dog lying on her side, or in the case of the chest stretch, on her back. The model for the standing stretches, our dog Rosco, was an adult rescue who has never rolled onto his back. Some dogs are very uncomfortable in this position, so if yours is, don’t force the issue. To demonstrate the lying-on-back chest stretch, we used our dog Ada, who we’ve taught from puppyhood to ‘play’ on her back.
Needless to say, if your pet shows any sign of pain during stretching, discontinue the movement and have her seen by your vet as soon as possible.
  • Stretching the hip flexors. The hip flexors are muscles that enable your dog to move his legs and hips while walking, trotting or running. To stretch the hip flexors, ask your dog to stand, and grasp a back leg above the knee. Gently and slowly move the leg back straight out behind your dog’s body. When you reach a point of resistance, where further extension will require applying pressure, hold the leg in position for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat this stretch 2 or 3 times with each back leg.

back pain in horses - horse chiropractor north shore boston - south shore boston - cape cod- nantucket

All of these muscles are attached to spinal bones and the pelvis so if your horse has a back issue then the muscles will pull on spinal bones in other areas and potentially cause issues elsewhere.
