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.

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

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
