[AlpacaTalk] Chiropractic adjustments for alpacas
Heather, do I recall that you talked about having this done long ago?
I had a dog years ago that got to where she couldn't go up and down the
stairs. I took her to my chiro and after one adjustment she was good
as new; never had any more problems going up and down the stairs.
I would think with those long necks it would be easy for an alpaca to
get out of whack?
Do you think that could be the cause of one having trouble with rear
legs.....uncoordina
This young alpaca (not one of mine) has not been able to coordinate her
legs or stand or walk for a couple of weeks. She is about 1 1/2 yo and
was fine until one day she started showing some signs of uncoordination
in the rear and trouble walking; then she got much worse. My first
thought was m-worm, but that has been ruled out. She has gotten much
better and is now standing and walking, but is still having trouble with
the rear hips/legs being uncoordinated and weak and not able to always
rise and cush properly, and the rear legs get weak quickly, tho they are
much better than they were 2 wks ago.
I am thinking perhaps nerve impingement by a vertebra.
Any thoughts or comments or suggestions?
Thanks! Janice
