Imagine when Animal Chiropractic is recognized and accessible everywhere.

Your pets deserve to live their healthiest, fullest lives — and chiropractors trained to care for them should be able to help them do exactly that.

Winston and I had a great time at the virtual Animal Chiropractic Freedom Rally — a movement to protect and advance animal chiropractic legislation.

This event was hosted for charity to support law reform and raised $22000!

Access to animal chiropractic care is still limited by outdated or restrictive laws in many states. This event helped raise funds and awareness for animal chiropractic law reform, helping protect practitioners and expand access for the animals and families who need animal chiropractic care.

ALL animals deserve direct access to chiropractic care provided by properly trained and certified chiropractors and veterinarians.

Normally we work on big dogs on the floor (hence the knee pads) but Leia preferred the bench!

Taking time to make sure your pet is comfortable during their visit is just as important as the care they receive!

Meet Spaghetti! 🍝 🐶 sometimes he is a little nervous at the beginning of the visit but he is all smiles after his chiropractic adjustment and laser therapy! 😃

A Cavapoo and a Cane Corso walk into a bar… wait we mean the vet!

This week Dr. Lacy and Winston joined Limerick Hill Canines for Puppy Play & Learn.

This is where puppies learn appropriate social skills in a safe, clean environment and build positive feelings about the vet’s office while owners learn how to help support their puppy and moderate play!

Socialization is crucial for puppies because it helps shape how they see and interact with the world during their most important developmental stages. Positive exposure to new people, animals, environments, sounds, and experiences helps puppies grow into confident, well-adjusted dogs rather than fearful or reactive ones.

Well-socialized puppies are typically easier to train, adapt better to change, and are less likely to develop anxiety or behavior issues later in life. Early socialization sets the foundation for a happy, safe companion who can handle everyday situations with curiosity instead of stress. 🐾

Their next Puppy Play & Learn is scheduled for February 25th. To sign up, go to

Dr. Lacy and her puppy are learning new tricks Petsmart Monroeville!

“Leave it” helps keep your puppy safe by preventing them from picking up harmful objects like trash, toxic foods/medications, or sharp items. It also builds impulse control, teaching them to pause and look to you for guidance instead of acting on instinct. Over time, this command strengthens trust, improves focus, and makes everyday walks and playtime calmer and safer for both of you.

🐾 Why Should My Puppy See a Chiropractor? 🐾

Puppies grow fast—and just like human kids, their bodies go through a lot of changes along the way! Gentle chiropractic care during the early stages of life can help support proper alignment as puppies grow into strong, healthy adults.

From slips on the floor, playful tumbles, learning stairs, or roughhousing with siblings, everyday puppy activities can create small imbalances in the body. When left unaddressed, these minor issues can contribute to compensation patterns that show up later as pain, stiffness, or injuries.

Chiropractic care for puppies is gentle, safe, and tailored to their growing bodies, focusing on prevention and wellness—not just pain relief. Starting early helps set the foundation for a lifetime of healthy movement, comfort, and vitality. 🐶💙

✨A healthy start leads to a healthier future!

Happy Howlidays from Head to Tail Wellness 🐾❤️🎅🏼 We know you all have been good boys and girls this year! That means extra treats for everyone! 🍪🐱🐶

7 year old Lena was having trouble getting up the stairs, climbing onto the couch and into bed, and was limping on her back left leg. Lena’s veterinarian recommended trying chiropractic.

⏭️ after the first visit, she was climbing onto the couch and the limping had resolved.
⏭️⏭️ after the second visit, she started climbing onto the bed again! (She even wags her tail at the end of her visit!)

We love helping pets do the things they love! 🐾
