Norskgra Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) Can anyone recommend a dog chiropractor in Sydney? We have had a couple of names given to us but I was wondering who DOLers use and are happy with. Edited February 2, 2006 by norskgra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polarpeak Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Can't go past Peter Schofield @ Mulgoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norskgra Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) Can't go past Peter Schofield @ Mulgoa We have actually taken our Afghan to him a few times and we thought he was good. We have been told by other people that he is not as good as some others. Edited February 2, 2006 by norskgra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarpeak Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Well I suppose everyone has their own opinion!!! I wouldn't go anywhere else though, he has done wonders for my furkids and they love him to bits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavsRcute Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Gary Barnsley, who does a lot of work on greyhounds. He's out west somewhere...not much help but i can find out if you need his contact details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norskgra Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 Gary Barnsley was one of the ones we were told was better for our Afghan. I would love his details if you could let me have them. We can at least give him a try and see how he compares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WreckitWhippet Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Gary Barnsley I haven't needed him for some time now so do not have the details, but would recommend him or Peter Schofield ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavsRcute Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I'll try and get them for you today. I'll ring around a couple of friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norskgra Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 Our problem is that our Afghan thinks he is an Elkhound and can do the same things as them. He doesn't know that he is built differently! He keeps putting his back out being an Elkhound! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavsRcute Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Got it! His phone number is 47748491 and he's out past Wallacia. if you have trouble with directions, a friend has said you can call her and she will tell you where he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest magnum Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 we have found Gary Barnsley excellent for our German Shepherds he is so good that he has been able to tell what their hips are like before we x-ray. He is also very kind with the dogs & we have never had a problem with the after treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJack Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Norskgra there is a woman who is a veterinary physiotherapist who is supposed to be very good. (Sorry, her name escapes me at the moment.) She does sessions at either the mortdale or Peakhurst vet, your area I think. Several of my flyball friends have seen her and recommend her. I'll try and get her name and contact details this weekend. Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavsRcute Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I think the physio you are talking about is Helen Nicholson. I also have her number if you need. She also goes to Strathfield, Penrith and the North Shore. Having a dog with HD, I can tell you about physios,chiros and acupuncturists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 2 Vets in Peakhurst and I hop it is the one I go to and not the other one as I really do not like them at all. Mortdale is only 5 minutes away from me. I was actually talking to one of my friends who bred 2 of my fur kids. She is taking 2 of her girls to see Gary Barnsley on Thursday and he was highly recommended by her vet. Before anyone asks, thier problems are totally unrelated to each other or mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavsRcute Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 It's Animal Physiotherapy Services Her email is [email protected]. Phone number is 4774 9756. You normally need to leave a message and she'll get back to you. I have seen her at The Animal Referral Hospital at Strathfield and also at North Turramurra. I think if you look on her website, it lists all her contacts Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norskgra Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 Thanks CavsRescue. I have looked at her website and she is at Mortdale Vets and I know where that is/ I will get in contact with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norskgra Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) As I said previousl, I have been to Peter Schofield and thought he was very good. We took our Afghan and 1 Elkhound to Gary Barnsley last night and I think he is fantastic. He was very thorough and good with the animals. He picked up injuries that we didn't know the dogs had and I will definately be going back to him if/when we need a Chiropractor again. I have to agree that he is the best. Thank you to those that recommended him. Edited February 23, 2006 by Norskgra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
