I did not see a neck brace on the dog in those 2 videos posted on that one recent post. Is the neck brace just not prescribed in every case? I had never even heard of AAI until I found YT and, today, I have read on the internet that Yorkies tend to have this condition more than any other breed.

Does anyone know if AAI is a recent disease process or has it been around for years?
