Acupuncture. My acupuncturist works on race horses as well as people, and when one of my cats was ill a few years ago, she worked on her and taught me how to do acupressure.<BR/><BR/>It will help with ease of movement, pain, and inflammation.<BR/><BR/>A good holistic vet in your area will be able to recommend a certified acupuncturist, or call a local racetrack.<BR/><BR/>It works WITH traditional veterinary care, not against it, and my vet was so supportive when we used it with Felicia.<BR/><BR/>It helps with the overall quality of life.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad the surgery went well -- I know how difficult it is when they're sick.<BR/><BR/>Love and best wishes to you all.devonellingtonhttp://devonellington.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19555277.post-66786510917188746192008-06-03T04:17:00.000-06:002008-06-03T04:17:00.000-06:00I am so sorry to hear that, my thoughts are with you and Grace. It's so hard when animals are ill or in pain and I know hip dysplasia can be so hard for dogs. Poor Grace! :( <BR/>It's good to hear the surgery went well though. I hope you are able to rest and spend time with your fur children soon.Courtneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17466262493110761564noreply@blogger.com
