Happy Halloween from our puppy crew! 🎃

One thing I often hear in my office is, “my dog sits crooked!” 🐶
Us animal chiropractors have a name for that — it’s called sloppy sitting (also known as a puppy sit or lazy sit)! This is when a dog sits to one side, with the other leg kicked out.

So, is it something to worry about? 👉 It depends!
Sloppy sitting can be completely normal in puppies — they’re extra flexible as their joints and ligaments are still developing. As they grow, those joints, ligaments, and bones strengthen, replacing that flexibility with sturdy, weight-bearing structures that allow them to run, jump, and play without issue.

By the time your dog reaches about 1–2 years of age, they should have outgrown the sloppy sit. If they haven’t, it could point to an underlying issue — such as a knee injury, luxating patella, hip concern, or scar tissue from a surgery (like a TPLO surgery).

It’s important to remember that sloppy sitting is often a symptom of something deeper going on in the musculoskeletal system. Finding and addressing the root cause can make a big difference in preventing future injuries. When an adult dog consistently sits this way, it’s a sign that something may be uncomfortable, and they’re shifting posture to take pressure off their joints or spine.

Does your pet sloppy sit? Send us a message — we’d love to help get to the bottom of it! ❤️

Nose to Tail fam, we need your help!

If you’ve ever dealt with a Google business listing you know how much of a pain in the butt they are. Well, I tried to add my location in IL on Google and it deleted my WI listing. This shouldn’t be a big deal cause everyone in Wisconsin knows how to get ahold of me and where I’ll be working out of, but all of my reviews disappeared with it which is the saddest part! 😭😭 So, if I’ve ever taken care of your animal I would appreciate more than anything you popping over and leaving a review- bonus points of its a review with a picture! I’ll leave the google review link in my stories!

Thank you all so so so much!

✨ Big News ✨

As some of you may know, our family has decided to move back home to Illinois! This means some exciting changes are coming for both my WI and IL patients.

🐾 For my Wisconsin patients – Don’t worry, you’re not getting rid of me that easy! I’ll still be coming back one Friday a month just for you. If your pet has been seen by me this year, you should have already received an email with details and you’re on my list to get notified when monthly dates open. I’ll always try to stay 3 months ahead so you can plan your visits. Current dates open are October 3rd & 4th, November 7th, and December 5th.

🌳 For my Illinois patients – Your life just got a whole lot easier! I’ll now have weekly hours in my Spring Grove office (right across from !) starting after October 20th, and scheduling is already open.

📌 A few important updates:

* I’ll only be accepting new patients in IL (WI visits will be for established patients only).
* Starting in October, both new patient and follow up visit pricing will be increased for the first time in 3 years!
* As a thank you, all existing patients (and anyone scheduled for a new patient appointment before Oct 1st) will be grandfathered into the old pricing.
* Wisconsin pricing will not change.

This move is bittersweet because I love the community we’ve built in WI, but I’m also so excited to plant deeper roots in IL and serve even more families and pets here. 💛

A different kind of momma and baby adjustment than I’m used to doing in the human world, but still just as magical ❤️✨ Thanks .young.dc for trusting me with these sweet angels!

Celebrating this sweet girls life ❤️

Benelli, aka “the fierce warrior” as her momma called her (a well deserved nickname!) gained her angel wings just a few days ago and man are we already missing her! Nelli was one of my first patients 2.5 years ago and started with me to help manage her arthritis and old lady pain. She did absolutely amazing under care and her mom definitely earns the title as one of the most compliant and loyal dog moms ever!

Almost exactly a year ago, Nelli was diagnosed with a**l gland adenocarcinoma. Her amazing mom and dad went all in- chemo, different meds and treatments, total diet change, added a holistic vet to her team, and she flourished for a whole year which was miraculous given her diagnosis! Just a few days ago, her fight came to an end and her parents said goodbye after showering her in so much love ❤️❤️

Fly high Nelli girl, we will miss you so much! 🌈

Since I just can’t seem to catch up with appointments, I opened some shifts in the next few weeks!

Feel free to hop on and snag a spot if you’ve been looking for one or move up your appointment if you’re needing a sooner one!

Illinois patients, I have July, August, and September open! 🥳

✨ SCHEDULE ANNOUNCEMENT ✨

I’m working my way through getting caught up after maternity leave, so I figured it would be a good time to do a schedule announcement/update!

Wisconsin patients: I’m slowly catching up! I’m still accepting new patients, but unfortunately they are currently booking about a month out so if you’re not an established patient and needing to get in ASAP, shoot me a message and I’ll give you some referral options! If you’re an established patient, I have openings as soon as about 2 weeks out. Of course if your pet is in really bad shape, don’t be afraid to contact me and we’ll figure it out! I highly recommend booking out though if you’d like your pet on a regular schedule.

Illinois patients: I currently have June, July, and August open for booking! I’m also officially opening up to new patients again in IL so feel free to spread the word! I will likely cap it at 1-2 new patients per time I’m there so definitely snag a spot if you see availability and message me if you don’t and would like to get in.

That’s all for now! If I haven’t seen you back at the office yet, I can’t wait to soon! ❤️❤️
