I called in to the vet today to give an update on Sheba. (Mixed bag. She's seemed more comfortable, she doesn't seem to be knuckling her feet under. But twice today when I've picked her up to carry her down some stairs, she's yelped a little bit. She's had a couple of accidents before I could get her outside. But she's also maintained a mostly happy disposition and continues to have a good appetite.)

Anyway, when I was speaking with the vet we were talking about things in general. We're going to step the prednisone back up for a bit again. I was saying that I'd prefer not to put Sheba through surgery or other invasive treatments if I could at all avoid it. I was asking her if she had any thoughts or observations about chiropractic. She was hesitant about it and also frank that she hasn't had much exposure to it. She went on to suggest that as far as alternative treatments go, she would probably lean toward acupuncture.

So. All of that was a longwinded prelude to ask. Have any of you had any experience with acupuncture with dogs? If so: good, bad, indifferent?
