This is Summit. We are helping to rebalance his gut with food, acupuncture, and herbs. He is a sweet, easygoing boy who loves hikes. I added a couple of acupuncture points near his ears to help with his hearing, which has started to decline. He was shaking his head because the needles were tickling his ear flaps. His Mom had the brilliant idea of using a headband to keep his ears out of the way. Problem solved! Having a good relationship with an owner means they are 100% involved in their pet's care and we work together as a team. Her cat, Po, decided to get involved at the end as I removed the needles after Summit's treatment. Cats always need to make sure things are being done right.

Roger is a beautiful 4 month old brindle pup with grey eyes. He absolutely loves other dogs and playing with toys. He is potty trained and goes potty on command. He knows his sit, come, and is working on his down command. He rides excellent in the car and walks phenomenal on a leash. His foster mom has 3 dogs and can walk all 4 dogs together. Roger would love to be your hiking companion, walking buddy, and snuggle bug. He loves to cuddle up on the couch and lay on your chest. He is the sweetest boy with the best personality. He would do great in a home with dogs, adults, and kids. If you are interested in Roger, please fill out an application online at Mary's Dogs. He is eager to find his furever home.

Time for acupuncture on one of my own, Princess Leia. She is still doing well after she had an FCE almost 2 years ago. Her left front leg is weaker than the others and she has a patella luxation in her right hind leg, which is why I still do acupuncture on her every 2-3 months for maintenance. I have also added laser therapy to her treatment plan as well. She definitely walks more confidently and with greater ease when she has these treatments. Our other dog, Dewey, is keeping her company and feeling what I like to call "referred acupuncture effects". Aramis, one of our cats, is supervising to ensure that the electrical acupuncture settings are correct. Acupuncture treatments are always a family affair ❤️🐾.
