There is a difference between spondylosis deformans and discospondylitis. One dog is in pain and possibly has neurologic deficits; the other is a chiropractic issue and allopathic veterinarians call it an incidental finding. Can you tell which is which? After watching the video you will be able to know the difference and how to treat.

An excellent group of knowledgable veterinarians, if you are a veterinarian and not a member of this group you should be. The descriptions of these diseases were paraphrased from Dr. Bill Thomas
Dipl.ACVIM(Neurology) University of Tennessee from a discussion on VIN.
What if you could guarantee yourself TOTAL Peace of Mind when it comes to your best friend’s health and well-being?
Most dog owners rely on yearly wellness exams from their vet, along with sporadic, often inaccurate information gleaned from friends and the internet.
Of course, we don’t rely on such information when it comes to ourselves, our kids, or other family members. When we have questions about our health, we don’t hesitate to schedule an appointment with our doctors.
How about if you had a veterinarian that you could ask questions with and have a personal contact with on a regular basis? Would this help alleviate any concerns you might have with any health issues with your dog?
I am looking for a few good dog lovers that want to take part in a special group, a membership of like minded individuals that really want the best for their dog, that want to learn what is the best for their dog.
Have you ever asked yourself any of these questions-
What should my dog be eating?
What supplements should my dog be taking?
My dog has such and such disease or dysfunction what really should I do?
Who should I trust, does my dog really need surgery?
Well ask away in this new membership. I am opening it to a select few CHARTER MEMBERS that will be the forefront of this new group. You can be the one to pave the path for members to come. You can ask the first questions and be the one that others will follow your story and the story of your dog.
The initial offering is only available to the first 25 members!
Hoppy my 12 year old(at the time) long hair Chihuahua, couldn’t stand or walk. Happened all of a sudden in the night. Looked like she wasn’t going to make it. Went to the emergency vet, they wanted to do a $4000 surgery with low hopes of her even living through it. Dr Dan did acupuncture and she was able to stand the next morning! Within a week she was pretty steady on her feet. A few more treatments and she was back to normal. Hoppy turned 15 last October and is doing great. She still runs around like a puppy thanks to Dr Dan. People can’t believe she is over 15.
I also have a standard Xolo with epilepsy. They are hyper and don’t calm down until about 3 years old, but Dr Dan was able to adjust his neck to stop the seizures. His name is Monty and he about to turn 6- seizure free for years! Thanks Dr Dan! We Love You!

Thank you Nikki!
I appreciate the great stories about acupuncture and chiropractic. Hoppy is one of my miracle stories that I am very happy to have had this experieince with her. It was amazing to see a dog flat on her side unable to even sit up to, in a matter of 3 weeks, able to walk and now able to run and play.
