🎆 Is Your Dog Ready for Fireworks Season? 🎇

Loud noises like fireworks can be terrifying for our furry friends — triggering anxiety, stress, and even physical tension. But did you know chiropractic care can actually help calm their nervous system before the booms begin?

🧠 Gentle adjustments support your dog’s nervous system, helping them feel more balanced and resilient.

💤 Many pet parents report calmer behavior, better sleep, and reduced anxiety after adjustments.

🐾 A pre-fireworks visit can make a world of difference for your pup’s comfort and wellbeing. Give your dog the gift of calm this season. Schedule their adjustment before the fireworks start flying!

Schedule too busy to get in BEFORE the fireworks?
✨ A gentle chiropractic adjustment AFTER fireworks can also help the nervous system reset, relax, and recover—naturally. Help your pup bounce back after the big bang by scheduling an adjustment after the holiday!

Duckie has a new lease on life! 🥰

Here is Duckie's story told from her sweet mom's own words:
"We have seen Dr. Kari for over a year now for our pocket bully, Duckie Rose. For the majority of her care it has been maintenance simply to keep her up and going with some breed predisposition.

Duckie was doing so well and we had some financial changes in our house, so we stopped going regularly to see Dr. Kari. But! About a month ago Duckie incurred a back injury that left her with what the vet diagnosed as IVDD, or slipped disc. Leaving her paralyzed in her back end, we were told by a vet that she would have to have surgery or that we would have to make a “quality of life” decision for her.

We did not and would not give up on Duckie!!! And we are in NO financial state to pay for a surgery. After all, we believe in alternative and holistic healing for ourselves and we believe the same for our pets!!!

We called Dr. Kari the same day as her diagnosis and she was able to fit us in just a few hours later that same day!!!! She delivered us the BEST news we had heard, that Miss Duckie Rose would be able to walk again, without surgery!!! We were given a tentative timeline by Dr. Kari for healing, and some therapy to do with her at home. After regular adjustments and the therapy and care at home, Duckie has been able wag her tail, stand and now even walk!!! Without much assistance!!! We do use a special harness to assist her for certain activities and we still have some healing ahead. But, we went from complete paralysis in her hind end, to leg movement and walking within weeks!!!

Dr. Kari has been such a blessing to our family and will forever hold a special place in our hearts for her healing hands and how much she cares for pets of all shapes and sizes!!! We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our fur babies and we are so glad for Duckie’s new lease on life!!!"

It is such a blessing to be able to care for families like this 💙 Please like and share to help other sweet fur babies who may be experiencing situations like this with no hope!

🐾 Dog Health Tip: Why Regular Nail Trims Matter! ✂️🐶

Did you know that overgrown nails can actually harm your dog’s health? Long nails can cause:

➡️ Painful walking or posture issues
➡️ Joint stress and arthritis over time
➡️ Torn nails, which can lead to infections

Keeping your pup’s nails trimmed helps them walk comfortably, stay active, and avoid injuries. Aim for a trim every 3–4 weeks, or as needed depending on activity level.

💡 Bonus Tip: If your dog has posture or movement issues from long nails, chiropractic care can help mobilize the spine and allow the brain and body to communicate better, relieving discomfort and improving mobility.

Meet Gilligan, the almost 10-year-old Irish Wolfhound!

Gilligan's mom knew he needed a chiropractor when he started having weakness in his back legs 2 months ago. After one adjustment she noticed he had better control of his back end and was able to use the stairs easier! His mom is thrilled to have her boy's mobility restored, and we are both looking forward to keeping him happy and healthy!

Cookie's story almost ended too soon…but now he's got a second chance at life! 🐶💖

Cookie is only 6 years old, yet his mom was presented with one option when his mobility worsened 4 months ago: euthanasia if he didn't improve. However, his mom knew there had to be another alternative for her sweet boy and found Haven Animal Chiropractic. She made the 4 hour round trip to come see me in Knoxville and get him started with chiropractic care.

Three days after his first adjustment, I received a text from Cookie's mom that he was walking around more and everyone couldn't believe how much better he was doing! After his second adjustment, Cookie started playing with the other dogs and getting back to his usual routine and activities. Cookie's mom has been absolutely dedicated to his care with multiple drives to Knoxville for his adjustments. 👏 We can't wait to see Cookie get back to his healthiest, happiest self!

I just want to give a shout-out to the WONDERFUL people at Balanced Paws K9 Training! Not only have they helped my pups with reactivity and living calmer lives, but they’ve also offered their space for me to provide my services while telling everyone about animal chiropractic. I am so incredibly grateful for the kindness and generosity I’ve received from Lincoln, Megan, and the whole team.

I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to grow a better relationship with their pup, no matter how old or what the challenges may be!

Happy Birthday Chiropractic!🎉

129 years ago today the first adjustment was delivered by DD Palmer to a janitor in Davenport, Iowa. This adjustment wasn't done for pain and restored his hearing!

I'm thankful every day that I get to be a part of this amazing profession that focuses on the innate ability of every living thing to heal itself. Do yourself or your furry family members a favor and get yourself (and them) to the nearest chiropractor to experience the life-changing power of an adjustment!🧠💥
