A couple years ago, my old dog Chenoa had a herniated disc, and the vet suggested we consider putting her down. In desperation, I called my bicycling buddy (we're done many thousands of miles together), a sports medicine chiropractor named Russ Harward. I asked him if he had any experience with animals, and he said he absolutely did.
Just one session with Russ and my sweet little girl walked perfectly. She's now almost 19 and doing well. Admittedly, I've anthromorphized her, making Chenoa the star of my sci-fi novel The Last Will & Testament of Harley and His Dog. I also gave her the title role in my Silver Award-winning short story, The Destroying Angel's Dog.
I'm glad she's still with me.
