Dogs communicate discomfort in many of the same ways humans do. Subtle changes in behavior, gait, posture, energy level, or willingness to move can all be signs that something isn’t functioning optimally.
Canine chiropractic care offers a gentle, drug-free approach to supporting spinal alignment, joint mobility, and nervous system function, helping dogs move more comfortably and maintain a better quality of life.
