Acupuncture
Consults with Dr Grace Paxton
Grace has a special interest in behaviour, gait analysis and pain management and is now qualified in veterinary acupuncture.
She is able to provide initial behavioural advice on issues such as resource guarding, dog aggression and reactivity. As many of these problems can be pain related, gait analysis or further investigations can then be recommended.
Acupuncture help with muscular pain, trigger points and as an addition to pain relief plans for chronic conditions such as arthritis.

Did you know?
60-80% of behavioural issues can be attributed to pain or medical issues.
Aversive methods such as prong and e-collars often exacerbate behavioural issues in the long run.
Meeting breed specific needs can help resolve behavioural issues and can be achieved by activities such as scent training, agility and food enrichment.
Many behavioural issues can be avoided by choosing a good breeder, an appropriate breed for your lifestyle and early socialisation and training.
