I also work in the clinic where we do acupuncture. It's starting to be popular with older dogs, and you see a lot in improvement.

Acupuncture helps with a lot of types of pain. People are more aware now that the pet does not have to suffer. One cat had skin problems, and they were going to put him to sleep. Acupuncture was a last resort and it really helped.

There are many people who like to do the raw diets for their pets - the raw meat with bones, and lots of vegetables. It's more natural, like in the wild, although it's not for every pet.
