4.0 out of 5 stars Good for the lay person but I wouldn't recommend all, January 9, 2003

By	Dr. Christine, chiropractor (Webster, TX USA) - See all my reviews

Good, thorough explanation of chiropractic in relation to dogs. Good illustrations that help you understand the mechanism of the adjustment. As a chiropractor, I appreciate the detail Dr. Kamen goes into regarding adjustments; however, the typical dog owner may not be able to identify serious medical conditions that would be aggravated by performing a chiropractic adjustment versus a simple malalignment or "subluxation" that would respond very well. Good basic book to look at if you're thinking of taking your dog to an animal chiropractor. Great book to understand what it's all about and how your pet may benefit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Goin' to the Dogs, February 5, 2003

By	maggie grant (Geyserville, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This book has saved my dog's dignity on more than one occasion. There truly is nothing more gratifying than finding the trouble spot, based solely on observing my dog's behavior, and then being able to refer to this wonderful book for stretching and therapeutic techniques that allow my dog to feel wonderful, almost instantly. I have bought this book for at least 3 of my dog owning friends who swear by it.

I would highly recommend this book for anyone who has a dog suffering from bladder control problems and neck pain. The methods are easy to do and Dr. Kamen's explanations are as lucid as I've ever read. Fun to read. Gary Meirs, Chicago, IL.
