Our lab mix has been getting acupuncture for a few weeks now and has gotten well enough, along with finishing his meds, that the acupuncture is moved to every other week. I would recommend trying acupuncture on your dog if he has any pain, hip, joint, or spine issues. It really seems to help. It’s not necessarily a cure, but makes our dog more comfortable. Baxter is moving easier, still has trouble getting up and down, but overall better.

He spends most of his days hanging out and sleeping. Since it’s been nicer weather he’s been hanging out on the front porch more watching the animals and things go by. He doesn’t mind his harness and wears it all day in case he needs to go out we don’t have to bug him taking it on and off. We take it off at night and if we are going to be out of the house for more then an hour or so. It seems to make him feel secure and it is cute on him. Chase has been a good brother and been by his side through all this. Chase has to be with him when he goes outside and comes in. He’s always checking on Baxter. It’s really sweet. Got to love a senior dog and his brother.
