Chiropractic for Dogs mass - Arthritis in Dogs

In the Northeast we are blessed with the almighty deer tick. Well this little fella can transmit many illesses to your dog. Lyme disease as well as Anaplasmosis are two common ones. Anaplasmosis is less common but can cause all the symptoms of arthritis. If you dog is slow to move and has a wide gate in the hind end, it may also be wise to see your vet for a blood test to rule out this infection. If present they will put your dog on anitbiotics like Doxi. for 2 weeks. It is important to have the chiropractor check you dog after the treatment since the muscles and joints can be affected by Anaplasmosis.
