One of my clinicians is getting certified and needed to practice, so I offered up my pup. She is getting older and has some arthritis, plus a history of anxiety, so I figured she could benefit from it.
She was a champ and did great. I think she even started to like it towards the end!
Almost done, I believe the 23rd needle was being placed just as I took the photo
Quite a few in her legs...
Can you see the one on top of her head? It was a calming point.
She started to fall asleep towards the end of the session!
In a couple of weeks she will have a second session. Hopefully it helps!
Also, I ran some blood work on her today too. Not quite as pretty as I was hoping for, but nothing specific yet. Mostly just old dog changes. Sigh... I'm not ready to accept that my pup is getting to be an old lady!
Awww! That is so funny the progression to relaxed dog toward the end. It is pretty cool how you can run bloodwork on your own dog - and understand it!
