By Ericka Korando I had just adopted Shakira, a beautiful little long-haired Chihuahua, and a couple of weeks into our new relationship we still had not learned to get along. Shakira's character was aggressive and seemed do not want me around. Despite the trainings she had before I brought her home, she kept continuing to have accidents in the house. I tried to like this dog but the anxiety she inflicts on me is far too much. A message forum is something I am not familiar with but I said OK. We sat down and Shyla's fingers flew. Within a few minutes, we were scrolling through some comments made by people who happened to live here in the area. Several people discussed the great details of positive results they got when they brought their pets to Midwest Microcurrent. Then I called and made an appointment with Dr. Ava Frick at Midwest Microcurrent the next morning. I found Dr. Frick to be very friendly and committed in her field when Shakira and I visited her clinic. As we talked about Shakira's behavior, Dr. Frick asked me if I ever thought about Shakira's anxiety spells. 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. Her treatment plan for Shakira was the Alpha-Stim Control System instead of any type of medication. Within a couple of hours of that first treatment, my dog had already started to calm down. I decided to buy a home version of the Alpha-Stim and thought it would be a worthy investment since it takes more than an hour each way when driving to Dr. Frick's clinic and Shakira would be needing more treatment. Shakira continues to improve and I found it easy to use. Her modified behavior is now better and we are now best of friends. Midwest Microcurrent, LLC, was founded by Dr.Ava Frick, a veterinarian who helps pets deal with stress, animal anxiety and behavioral problems. Her practice is also involved in pet joint pain. |
