Prince Charming's Success Story
Prince Charming's Success Story
Prince Charming, a 7 year old neutered male, French bulldog, came to The Vet at the Barn in March 2005 for a consultation on rear limb lameness. After diagnostic testing, included but not limited to, orthopedic examination, neurological examination, blood chemistries, and radiographs, Beverly Cappel, DVM diagnosed him with spinal deformities of the thoracic spine and Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) of the lumbar spine. This condition was causing Prince Charming to loose the awareness of where his paws were. If untreated it would have caused paralysis.
Both Beverly Cappel, DVM and Gloria Binkowski, VMD treated Prince Charming with acupuncture and put Prince on several different supplements to support his spine and immune system. Prince Charming responded very well to the acupuncture and began to slowly improve. He also received chiropractic adjustments by Dr. Marc Sommer.
.In May 2005 Prince Charming began physical rehabilitation with Danielle Riviera, CCRP, CMT. He underwent hydrotherapy in the underwater treadmill and many different weight bearing therapeutic exercises. More than two years have passed and Prince Charming can run with the best of them with no signs of lameness.
