Do you know how the first vet came to that conclusion that he needed to 'line his neck up with his back?" Did he take an x-ray there?

When you went to the second vet, did you bring the records just to make sure tha the second vet knew what direction the first vet was taking?

It can be confusing to both the docs and to you sometimes...

If AAI/AAS was suspected, it's such a rare thing, I would go to a Veteranary Neurologist and have it ruled out completely before disregarding it. That is a doctor of Veteranary Medicine that specializes in the nervous system ONLY. He is not usually a 'regular' vet. Often, they are associated with large veteranary colleges.

I have never heard (but that doesn't mean it can't happen) of a vet doing a chiropractic adjustment on a dog with AAI/AAS. It's not a matter of pushing the vertebrae back into a slot...it's usually a congenital defect in the spine..a weakness that can only be corrected by surgery.

On another thread you mentioned a slight yellowish discharge from your boy's privates..yes, it's not abormal to see a small amt. of non-clear discharge.
And yes, if he's excited to see you, you may see the red tip as well.

Hope you are successful in getting all checked out,
