Tender Care for Companions

Attentive, hands-on healing for companions who have quieter ways of telling us where they hurt.

Behavior change is communication

Limping or lameness
Immobility or difficulty getting up or down
Reluctance or resistance to using stairs
Difficulty jumping
Difficulty chewing or eating
Constipation
Pain when touched, petted, lifted, or scratched
Lethargy or hiding

Noticing that your companion's behavior has changed is the first step in getting them the healing they need.

Knowing how to listen to your companion is our first skill

True healing begins with listening, so we practice the art of reading the unique language of your companion's body, where every wince, hesitation, and subtle shift tells us what words cannot.

Healing with hands, not pills

Canine chiropractic care is a gentle, non-invasive path to healing, free from surgery and medication, that seeks to mend the biomechanical and neurological issues stemming from spinal or joint fixations. Such conditions can often arise from life's unexpected turns, such as trauma, injury, or simply the natural aging process.

Most canine chiropractic is offered by veterinarians who also dabble in chiropractic. Our exclusive focus on hands-on chiropractic care ensures a gentle touch, honed by years of specialized practice, unlike the occasional chiropractic service offered by general vets which might not be as finely tuned to your dog's delicate needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely. We encourage you to be present during your pet's adjustment. Your presence is calming for your companion and helps them feel safe. You are welcome to hold them, comfort them, and be part of the healing process.

After an adjustment, many pets show immediate improvement in mobility and comfort. Some may be sleepy or extra relaxed for a day or two as their body integrates the changes. This is completely normal and a sign that healing is underway.

The principles are the same as human chiropractic, but the technique is adapted to your pet's unique anatomy. Adjustments are extremely gentle, using precise, low-force contact tailored to each animal's size and condition.

Many pet owners notice positive changes within the first one to three visits. Chronic conditions may take a few more sessions. Dr. Dylan will discuss a care plan tailored to your companion's specific needs.

This depends on your dog's condition and health goals. Some dogs benefit from weekly visits initially, transitioning to monthly maintenance care. Dr. Dylan will recommend a schedule based on your companion's unique needs.

Yes. Chiropractic care works beautifully alongside other treatments, including veterinary care, acupuncture, massage, and rehabilitation. We are happy to coordinate with your veterinarian to support your pet's overall wellness plan.
