Dog cured of crippling arthritis thanks to
ground-breaking acupuncture treatment
An adorable pooch has a new lease of
life after he was cured of his crippling arthritis - thanks to acupuncture.
Poorly pup Louis was on his last
legs as painful arthritis left him unable to move - and devastated owner
Victoria Thomas thought it meant the end for her pet.
But the nine-year-old Labrador-Collie
cross-breed has got a spring in his step again, after a few sessions
of animal acupuncture.
Since Louis has been visiting 608
Vet Practice in Solihull, West Midlands, for regular sessions, he's gone from
tired old hound to a lively pooch.
Victoria, 68, believes the
"miracle" treatment saved her pooch's life - and he's now bounding
around like a puppy again.
Victoria, from Birmingham, who
adopted Louis he was a puppy, said: "Louis has been suffering
with arthritis for nearly three years now, and it's only got worse
as he's got older - he suffers all over his body.
"He was in a lot of pain, and
getting very depressed - it was horrible to watch him like that.
"He couldn't even get to his
feet on his own, we had to physically lift him - it was very distressing to see
him in so much pain.
"When we initially had him
examined he was put on a course of treatment which did no good, and then
another which made him very sick, and finally a third - but even that didn't
really help much, it only took the edge off.
"I happened to be talking to
someone at the rescue centre where we got Louis, and they asked if I'd tried
acupuncture.
