June Pet of the Month: Myah

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

Magnificent Myah

Myah is a jovial 7-year-old Welsh Corgi who’s been coming to Dogwood since a spunky pup of 8 weeks. Overall, she’s  been healthy. Myah sees us annually for her wellness exam and when she’s not feeling well. Myah suffers from back pain with the possibility of disk disease. At one point, she visited us twice monthly for acupuncture therapy. Today she is doing much better and is receiving monthly acupuncture treatments for maintenance, eating a veterinary-recommend diet, taking natural supplements, and pain medication as needed. We all look forward to hearing Myah’s friendly “hello” whenever she walks through our door!

Joey Our Amazing Cancer Patient – Update!

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

His prognosis was poor. He was paralyzed. Several specialists worked with him and found heart disease, a malignant cancerous mass next to his heart, and paralysis. When Joey first came to Dogwood, his future was grim so we started him on nutritional therapy (veterinary-specific diets), herbal supplements, and routine acupuncture treatments. Joey’s owner gave a tremendous amount of optimism and support in his care.

It’s now a year and half later and Joey is celebrating his monumental 15th birthday! He’s feeling good,  paralysis is gone, and he’s doing as well as an old guy can. Last week, he came in for his monthly acupuncture treatment and x-rays to monitor cancer growth. The results came back today and show no signs of cancer progression!

Happy Birthday to you, Joey!  You simply are amazing!

Pet of the Month Joey wo text

We are happy to celebrate our newest Pet of the Month, Joey! Joey, a charming cockapoo, was diagnosed with cancer a little over a year ago. His cancer treatment plan includes monthly acupuncture visits, Chinese herbs, natural supplements, and routine monitoring.

As of the last exam, none of Joey’s tumors have grown in size. In fact, he’s feeling much better than before his diagnosis!

Pet of the Month: October 2009: Odin

Odin slide

O is for Odin!”

Our October pet of the month is an Outgoing and Outrageously loving Orange feline named Odin.

Odin a 1 ½-year-old orange tabby was severely injured from being struck by a car. Odin had just enough strength to find his way home and get help.  His mother immediately rushed him to the hospital.

His accident severely injured his right eye and fractured his jaw.  Like the ancient Norse god whom he was named after, Odin too lost his eye. Fortunately, he had a successful surgery and showed no signs of internal organ damage.

Today, Odin is recovering remarkably!  His recovery treatment includes:  recheck exams, acupuncture (to promote healing), adding supplements such as Amino B-Plex (for increased energy), eating a high-quality diet, and most importantly receiving lots of love and care from his mom, sister, Meg, and his entire family!

We wish Odin and his family the very best!
