After Dr. Flaherty inserted the needles, Red lay down and didn’t move for nearly a half an hour. His eyes opened to follow me if I moved, but he was otherwise as still as I can remember seeing him. I don’t know what goes on in a dog’s mind, and I am always wary of the things people do for their dogs and then swear by them, but I did sense a calm in Red that I am seeking to encourage and expand. He works hard, doing intense work and has so many interactions with people now, this is something I feel I owe him, and am eager to pursue.
