The action of flexion [bending the head down] to eat or drink may indicate a subluxation in the neck as well as possible disk problems. These issues can even be in the upper to mid back region. Your dog may have tightness in the muscles along the spine due to these subluxations and thus cannot elongate these muscles in order to eat or drink.
Canine Chiropractor certified by the AVCA can determine if chiropractic can help and with some adjustments along with cold laser and some exercises many of these dogs return to normal.
