He did a full blood work up and took x-rays and found she has 3 bulging discs, 2 in her neck and one mid back. Also the start of arthritis as she is about 9 years old.
He put her on rimadyl 25 mg, I give her a quarter tablet in the morning and another at night. Keeping her quite (crating her is not an option as it makes her crazy) but she is not moving to much anyway. We are on her 3rd week and although she is getting better, when she is startled (any odd noise) she jerks which causes her to bark in pain, although this is now a shorter duration then when we started 3 weeks ago with her medication I just hate it. All of this just scares me silly as I don't want to loose my little girl.
Anyway my question is has anyone gone through this and did you try chiropractic care?
Thanks for any input.

I didn't read each post, but I thought I'd tell you...
We had great success with Osteopathy, and Somatherapy, see if you can find one in your area, and then see if they can refer you to one that treats animals. It is more like massage or physio, than Chiro...
Good luck
