Anxious Chihuahua Received Benefits from Alpha-Stim Treatments
Shakira, my adopted beautiful little long-haired Chihuahua and I took a while to learn getting along with other. Shakira has been showing aggressive character indicating she does not want to befriend me. She kept having accidents in the house although she had been trained before I brought her home.
As hard as I was trying to love her and get along, this little dog was causing so much anxiety in my life. I wasn’t sure what a message forum was, but I said OK. We sat down and Shyla’s fingers flew. In just a few minutes, we were reading through some comments from people who happened to live in the area. Several people discussed the great details of positive results they got when they brought their pets to Midwest Microcurrent.
The next morning, I called and made an appointment with Dr. Ava Frick at Midwest Microcurrent. When Shakira and I visited the clinic, I found Dr.Frick to be very warm and felt like she had found her calling in working with pets.
We talked about Shakira’s behavior then Dr. Frick asked me if the idea that Shakira was suffering from anxiety ever crossed my mind. I felt guilty of being worried of my own anxiety and never thought that pets would feel anxiety the same way.
I told Dr. Frick that I did not like the idea of putting my dog on any sort of canine anti-depressants, and she agreed. She believes on holistic alternatives in treating pet anxiety or animal depression. Our course of treatment for Shakira included using the Alpha-Stim Stress Control System rather than medication. My dog began to calm down in a few hours on the first treatment.
The drive to Dr. Frick’s clinic takes more than an hour each way, and since Shakira would be needing more treatment, I decided that it would be worth the investment to purchase a home version of the Alpha-Stim. Shakira continues to improve and I found it easy to use. Her modified behavior is now better and we are now best of friends.
Dr. Ava Frick founded Midwest Microcurrent, LLC to help pets in dealing with stress, animal stress, and behavioral problems. Her practice is also involved in pet joint pain.
