Hi Kim,
I am very sorry for your issue. Hopefully you can get the word out about these guys.
You mentioned neck/spine pain for Buster after his surgery. I think Sasha is going through the same thing. They put her on Dextabs and OMG what a miracle last week. She went from not being able to move her front legs to walking up and down her ramp in 3 days. Unfortunately, it seems to be happening again. The vet seems it might be a herniated disk. I have called around but noone does acupuncture on dogs in my area. We are going to try to increase her dextabs (steroids) this week and see what happens.
Good luck with the claim. You would think the least they could do is refund your premiums that you have paid in for the last 2 years!!!

Where are you located Sasha? If you are looking for one in the US check out this website. http://www.aava.org/ It is the American Academy of Veterinarian Acupunture. It will give you the name of a vet that will practice acupunture in your state. If you are outside the US check out this one. http://www.komv.....apsocs.htm It gives you the name of associations all over the world. For a chiropractic vet check this one out. http://www.avca.....vcadus.htm It is the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association. Hope you can find someone to ease your pain. Sure that if we all put our paws together we will find some resources to help you out. Take care of yourself!
