Animals come into our lives as gifts from God, for companionship, to teach us, and to heal us. They deserve our very best efforts in caring for them.

Ear Acupuncture Tacks in Place

On Friday, April 23rd, I took Brady to see Dr. Peace for his ear acupuncture. She implanted a tiny stainless steel staple in each ear at a strong acupuncture point. He will keep these in forever and if they happen to become dislodged, we will simply put them back in.

Acupuncture is another helpful option which has helped to control seizures in many pets. Sometimes just placing an ear acupuncture tack in a dog's ear will stop seizures and this only requires one acupuncture visit.

If the ear tack doesn't work, gold implants can be placed in different locations under a pet's head. Or your pet can be treated with traditional Chinese acupuncture.
