Shutzhund can create compression on facet joints of the spine causing nerve irritation as well as disc problems. Chiropractic checkups on your dog are paramount to prevent the early onset of spinal stenosis as a result of this compression. Chiropractic adjustments will help in joint function and prevent the nerve pinching.
Jumping and extension of the spine is stressful so it pays to have routine chiropractic checkups.
