🦘 Did you know that chiropractic care isn't just for dogs and cats?

Recently, Dr. Chenoa Schwenn-Foster had the unique opportunity to perform a chiropractic adjustment on a kangaroo! While it's certainly not an everyday patient, it highlights how chiropractic care can benefit a wide variety of animals.

Just like people, pets can experience joint restrictions and musculoskeletal discomfort that affect their mobility, comfort, and overall quality of life. Veterinary chiropractic care may help:

✔ Improve mobility and flexibility
✔ Reduce pain and discomfort
✔ Support athletic and working animals
✔ Promote nervous system function and overall wellness

Whether your pet is recovering from an injury, showing signs of stiffness, slowing down with age, or simply needs help performing at their best, chiropractic care may be a valuable part of their wellness plan.

We're proud to offer chiropractic services at R Veterinary Columbia and even prouder of Dr. Chenoa for helping animals of all shapes and sizes feel their best!

🐾 **Found Cat – Help Us Find His Home!** 🐾

This sweet boy was recently found and brought to us at R Veterinary in Columbia. He is **not microchipped**, but he **has been neutered**, which tells us he likely has a family out there missing him.

He is currently safe and being cared for at a kind client’s home while we try to locate his owner.

If you recognize this cat or believe he may belong to you or someone you know, please reach out to us as soon as possible. Let’s work together to get him back where he belongs 💙

Please share this post to help spread the word!

**🐾 Help Us Help This Sweet Dog 🐾**

This little one was brought into R Veterinary at Columbia by a kind Good Samaritan after being found in heartbreaking condition. Severely matted and extremely underweight, it’s clear this dog has not had an easy road.

We’ve already given a much-needed haircut to relieve the painful matting, and now our team is focused on the next steps: medical care, proper nutrition, and giving this pup the comfort and dignity it deserves.

💛 **How you can help:**
We are accepting donations to assist with the cost of care. Every contribution, no matter the size, goes directly toward treatment, food, and recovery.

🏡 **Interested in giving this dog a second chance?**
We will be looking for a loving, committed home once medically cleared. If you are interested in adopting, please reach out to our clinic for more information.

This dog has already been shown kindness once, let’s continue that together. Thank you for supporting animals in need and helping us make a difference.

📞 Call us at 573 443 7274 or message our page to donate or inquire about adoption.
