Yep, Chiropractic "treatment" is also very popular.
A lady I know from dog training tries to get her older Border Collie once a week for $200 ----- I'm pretty sure I heard her correctly!

And there's also doggie massage with t-touch. T-touch, by the way is used to solve almost everything. Someone once suggested I try it to help my dog with gun-shyness!

Jack R.:
Whatever you do, don't try to argue with a dog owner who's a true believer in this crap.  I've made that mistake.
