Irmina and Nixon
At the beginning of 2017 my lovely new next-door neighbour moved in. Best part, her roommate: a sweet, grey-muzzled 10 year old black lab named Nixon. Being able to work from home and having an older dog of my own, Nixon became our almost daily guest and a frequent, sprightly walking companion. Nixon, the quintessential lab with a social and …
Read MoreRomelda and Smidgin
We have been going to Dr. Mishka for about a year now at All About Dogs. When we first went, it was solely due to Renée’s suggestion that Smidgin may benefit from an adjustment. She had been doing agility classes for a year, but really hadn’t ran particularly fast, and often had a funny little prancing gait as she “ran.” …
Read MoreHelen and Séamus
In March of 2014, our four-year-old dog, Séamus, began to hobble with pain after our morning walks, limping so severely he would spend the rest of the day quite motionless. We shortened his walks and kept him on-leash so as to manage both the speed and length of his mobility, to little avail. After performing X-rays, our vet determined that …
Read MoreKathy and Ruby
Thank You Dr. Mishka. I must admit that when it was suggested that my horse, Ruby, might benefit from a chiropractic treatment, I was skeptical. However, it became apparent as our dressage lessons progressed that Ruby was having physical difficulties with movement patterns. She was particularly stiff and sore on her right lead. She was therefore fussing and becoming resistant …
Read MoreJenn and Berkeley
Our dog, Berkeley, was referred to Dr. Mishka Thomson after she sprained her iliopsoas muscle. Dr. Mishka took the time to answer all of our questions regarding chiropractic care for dogs. Berkeley immediately felt comfortable with her and within the first two sessions, Berkeley had more energy than she had demonstrated in a year. What we had chalked up to …

I was not a huge believer in chiropractic care until I saw the difference Dr. Mishka’s treatments made in my horses. Improvements I’ve seen: – Weight and muscle gain on horse known as a “hard keeper” that lacked top line – Horse that tripped frequently stopped tripping – Horse that was grumpy and reluctant to move forward is now energetic …
Read MoreJosie and Buddy (maltese poodle x)
I just wanted to thank Dr. Mishka Thomson for extending the life of our 15 year old maltese poodle- Buddy. After sustaining some persistent leg injuries and being completely atrophied on one side of his leg, Buddy was unable to move. He had slipped 2 discs in his back and the animal clinic pumped him up with pain-killers and …
Read MoreVanessa Terveld and Woody (Alaskan Malamute)
Woody is a 15 year old Alaskan Malamute. He had back surgery last April. For the first 2 months, he couldn’t walk without assistance. Slowly he recovered to moving on his own but I could tell he was having some pain and discomfort issues. Dr. Mishka was recommended to me. After our second treatment, I was astonished to see a …
Read MoreErin and Honey (9, Lab Sheppard x)
Honey suffered a CCL injury years ago that resulted in arthritis in her back legs. Since receiving chiropractic treatment from Dr. Mishka, she is so much happier. The soreness in her back legs has improved greatly. We’re very pleased as she’s able to jump up on our bed with ease and go up and down stairs without difficulty. Thanks very …
Read MoreFiona and Sweetpea (Beagle)
My 12yr old beagle, Sweetpea started seeing Dr. Mishka for chiropractic adjustments in 2014 for a muscle strain in her groin. After a few treatments Sweetpea’s gait and comfort level improved significantly. After approximately a month there were no clinical signs of her injury. Sweetpea had always walked up the stairs slowly and it seemed to be labour intensive for …
