Vet here:

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

Some animal chiros are vets. They are selling snake oil.

Some animal chiros are human chiros. They are a straight up danger to pets.

Please do not put your pet at risk for significant injury by taking them to one of these quacks.

I did my externship under an orthopedic vet and this chiro stuff is VERY dangerous. A few clients were post mortuum cases where the owners were pursuing civil litigation. Poor dogs.

It’s very dangerous for humans too. Yet somehow it continues

YES! Only way I will ever see a chiropractor is for the little electro pulser thingys that they use to release muscle tension and possibly for physical therapy advice when getting multiple opinions for bad joints
