When Your Pet Gets Infected Of Swine Flu
I was alarmed by the buzz in the news over the last few months about the Swine Flu (known as H1N1 influenza) if it will endanger my two West White Terriers, Bodie and Bacall. The cat had developed signs of a respiratory infection after several people in its family were ill. Canine Chiropractic
Fortunately, she told me that cat was able to recover.
Dr. Frick said that both the American Veterinary Medical Association and the American Association of Feline Practitioners have been putting out reminders that many viruses have the ability to pass between people and animals.
She said that it is always a wise move to be vigilant on your pet’s health and contact your veterinarian for any suspecting concerns. The difference between canine influenza, also known as H3N8 influenza and H1N1 influenza, which is the official name for the Swine Flu was further explained to me by Dr Frick. Animal Chiropractic
Though canine influenza is more common in dogs than H1N1, it bears much serious threat. It has the unfortunate ability to spread quickly through anywhere there is a population of dogs such as rescue organizations, kennels, or greyhound facilities and can pass directly from one dog to another.
One complication of canine influenza is pneumonia, which is sometimes fatal. It has been reported that its mortality is approximately 10%.
So far, H1N1 does not seem to be capable of passing among animals, however authorities are telling us that H1N1 can infect cats and maybe dogs. For several years of Dr. Frick taking care of everything to boost the immune systems of Bogie and Bacall through stress relief with Alpha-Stim treatment, providing them with multi-vitamins, and a healthy diet, I am delighted and at peace.

Proper Nutrition Helps Diabetic Feline Get Off of Daily Insulin Injections
Poor Brutus! I always frieve whenever I recall our then six-year-old cat’s life. He weighed about 20 pounds, which Dr. Frick told us was 8 to 9 pounds too many. Animal Joint Pain
Two years ago, our previous vet diagnosed Brutus of having diabetes and started treating him with 6 units of insulin twice a daily. Our former vet had us feeding Brutus a special dry food for diabetic cats.
Then my friend told me me that her sister-in-law took her dog to a credible veterinarian and was impressed with the outcome. That veterinarian turned out to be Dr. Ava Frick, and we are so glad that we found out about her clinic.
By the time we took Brutus to see Dr. Frick for the first time, he seemed to have flaky dandruff coming off and his fur was dull. He used to take in unreasonable amount of water and urinate 10-12 times daily. He seemed hungry all the time, begging for food like a dog. He was also very cranky and never wanted to be around the family any longer
We took Brutus to Dr. Frick’s clinic for about a week, ran some tests on him, and she explained the serious concerns regarding his blood sugar levels, which were found to be like a rollercoaster. They were like a rollercoaster. Animal Pain Relief
Dr. Frick tried an experiment on Brutus by taking him off the insulin for a short while and reintroduced it. She modified his diet to a canned, low-carb food, and started on a routine of 2 units of insulin every 12 hours.
In just a period of two days, his blood sugar levels returned to normal. Also, his excessive thirst and urination stopped.
We closely monitor and test Brutus’ blood glucose levels at home 2 to 3 times everyday until Dr. Frick advised that it is time to take Brutus off from insulin after about three months on his new diet and dosage of insulin. He was able to discard almost five pounds, regained his normal luster of his coat, goes to his litter box three or four times everyday. Pleading for food is now in the past and his grouchy personality reverted to his once old and loving character. Animal Chiropractic
Anxiety-Riddled Chihuahua Benefits From Alpha-Stim Treatments
I had just adopted Shakira, a beautiful little long-haired Chihuahua, and a couple of weeks into our new relationship we still had not learned to get along. Shakira’s character was aggressive and seemed do not want me around. She had been trained before I brought her home, yet she kept having accidents in the house. Animal Cranial ElectroTherapy Stimulation
The anxiety this little dog is causing has become too unbearable to tolerate. I wasn’t sure what a message forum was, but I said OK. We both sat down and Shyla’s fingers did the rest. Within a few minutes, we were scrolling through some comments made by people who happened to live here in the area. Several people were talking about the great results they received when they took their pets to a place called Midwest Microcurrent.
Then I called and made an appointment with Dr. Ava Frick at Midwest Microcurrent the next morning. When Shakira and I visited the clinic, I found Dr.Frick to be very warm and felt like she had found her calling in working with pets. Animal Pain Relief
We discussed Shakira’s behavior and Dr. Frick asked me if I had ever given any thought to the idea that Shakira was suffering from anxiety. I never thought nor dreamed that pets would feel anxiety while I was worried of my own anxiety.
I told Dr.Frick that I did not like the idea of putting my dog on any sort of canine anti-depressants, and she agreed. Her philosophy about using holistic alternatives for treating pet anxiety or animal depression made perfect sense to me. Her course of treatment for Shakira was the Alpha-Stim Control System over any type of medication. My dog started to calm down in a few hours after the first treatment.
I decided to buy a home version of the Alpha-Stim and thought it would be a worthy investment since it takes more than an hour each way when driving to Dr. Frick’s clinic and Shakira would be needing more treatment. It is amazingly easy to use, and Shakira continues to improve. We are now bestfriends and her bahavior has improved as well. Animal Chiropractic
Indisposed Golden Retriever Regains Itself
My Golden Retriever would not have been alive today if not for Dr. Ava Frick. I credit her knowledge of a dog’s unique nutritional needs with saving Zoltan. Animal Chiropractic
Presently, you will not be seeing any clues on him that I have almost lost him sometime. I am so thankful to have found Dr. Frick. Zoltan and I cannot describe our deepest gratitude towards her.
Zoltan used to be a healthy and energetic little guy. We had settled into a nice routine together as two bachelors, and he was very active. Then my dog gradually loss his appetite in both eating and drinking when he was about seven months old. Then he barely barked from being a fairly vocal one. He seemed to have lwithered his limitless puppy energy and left his eyes and nose dry. All he wanted to do was sleep.
I thought it was just the weather that caused it and expected him to be back to his old self in a day or two. I actually felt lost as I see him suffering.
What confused me was the fact that he continued to grow, yet he lost weight at the same time. In about two weeks, he had lost two and a half pounds.
I researched online and found a bland recipe of homemade chicken and rice. At first, he quite liked etaing it then afterwards, lost interest on it. Animal Joint Pain
It was while I was searching online for what might be wrong that I learned about Dr. Frick’s practice and the great things she had done with canine chiropractic and other pet issues. Her work in the animal pain management area really caught my attention and made me realize that she is the right person to help Zoltan even if I do not have any idea if Zoltan is really hurting.
Dr. Frick talked with me about the importance of nutrition. She said that she believed often recommended to her patients a brand that she feels is the best whole food nutrition available. This was the first I had ever heard of Standard Process Veterinary Formula products. We immediately gave Zoltan the Canine Whole Body Support, Organically Bound Minerals, Myo-Plus, Neurotrophin PMG and Neuroplex.
Then Zoltan’s health gradually improved and was able to retain those sparkling eyes again. Zoltan gained 30 pounds back in six months. Throughout the treatment, I was able to feed him with regular dog food, saved a lot of money, and let my meticulous eater to eat foods he used to like.
As Zoltan continued to recuperate, Dr.Frick determined it would be best to wean Zoltan from the majority of the supplements, but recommended I keep giving him Canine Whole Body Support and Organically Bound Minerals each day. Animal Pain Relief
End Your Pets’ Anxieties, Enroll Them At Midwest Microcurrent Clinic
Rescued pets often suffer from animal anxiety and depression. This is not really surprising because animals are regularly left alone by their owners. The most unfortunate thing is that animals are treated inhumanely, left to die of hunger and sometimes, beaten up by cruel people. If you decide to own a rescued pet, you have to be more patient because these animals usually takes more time to adjust to their new owners and environment. Although I have made preparations myself beforehand, my experience with Mimi the golden retriever was something I have never imagined. Animal Chiropractic
By nature, golden retrievers are kind and friendly animals. However, when I took Mimi in, she was quite agitated and always moody. She was unresponsive to acts of kindness and would often bark at me whenever I try to get close to her. It was really difficult to groom and teach her tricks. I was about to give up and planned to return her to the shelter when I stumbled upon Alpha-Stim 100 technology in a popular pet blog. It says that the techniques are geared for animals suffering from anxiety and depression. Animal Pain Relief
I had to ask my boyfriend to help me bring Mimi to the clinic that offers Alpha-Stim 100 to treat anxiety, depression and insomnia because it was difficult to manage her all by myself. Animal doctors administer animal cranial electrotherapy stimulation to soothe and relax the pets. After the initial diagnosis, Mimi was subjected to a 20 minute Alpha-Stim 100 session and immediately after the treatment, she looked more relaxed. When I reached out to touch her ears and caress her body, I felt that she was more stable and the wailing and barking was gone.
Midwest Microcurrent’s Alpha-Stim 100 is really effective. After two weeks of therapy at the pet clinic, I have observed that Mimi is sleeping soundly and her levels of anxiety was greatly reduced. Likewise, she stopped retreating whenever I approach her. Best of all, Mimi allows me to pet and groom her. She even starts to wag her tail every time I enter my apartment after a day’s work. I vouch for the efficiency of the Alpha-Stim 100 in treating pets suffering from animal anxiety and depression. Horse Depression
Caring For Animal Joint Pain Using Natural Techniques
Since Maya is an only child, we try our best to give her what she wants for as long as it will develop her character and help her learn new things. She already displayed an interest in horses even at a young age of 8 and in fact, she’d love to have her own pet horse. We had to wait for several years before buying her a horse since the cost was not within our budget. Besides, we had to make sure that owning such a pet is not just a passing fancy. Thus, when we gave her Black Beauty, she was so excited and enthralled. Shortly after learning how to ride the majestic horse, our daughter was really determined to teach her new pet some tricks, such as jumping and galloping. Animal Chiropractic
Black Beauty is not really a young horse. The primary reason why we were able to buy the horse was because the owner was facing foreclosure of his farm and he wanted to save his farm and home thus, he was forced to sell his prized possessions. Hence, we were really unaware that Black Beauty was already 15 years old when we purchased her. After a year has passed, the horse started to disobey Maya whenever she asked the horse to to do some exercises ; also, it started to exhibit signs of aging Pet Pain Relief
The lackluster performance of the horse has also affected our Maya’s disposition. She became less enthusiastic and depressed because she thought that the reason why Black Beauty was acting up was because of our daughter’s poor leadership skills. It has not occurred to our Maya that the problem lies with horse arthritis, which can cause extreme animal joint pains. In my bid to improve the situation, I searched the Internet and looked for clinics that specialize in animal joint pains. It was really a blessing that I stumbled upon the website of Animal Fitness Center, an animal chiropractic clinic.
We brought Black Beauty to animal Fitness Center so that Dr Ava Frick can immediately diagnose the problems. She immediately told us about animal joint pains and explained to us that chiropractic sessions, as well as Alpha-Stim 100 (a medical device that emits microcurrents to relieve pain and tension), will help ease the arthritic pain suffered by Maya’s pet. Dr Frick also came up with a customized pain management therapy which focuses on Black Beauty’s nutrition to make her feel better. We were impressed by the fast recovery and the notable improvement even after a few weeks of therapy. Maya also realized that it was the animal joint pains that was to blame for her pet’s sufferings. She is also happy that Black Beauty seems to be more energetic and happier now. Animal Joint Pain
