we just had to put our german shepherd down last month. she was 13, her name was Blair. we got her at 6 months old and she already had hip dysplasia. the last two years, she was like Rayne. unable to walk properly without a wheelchair, needed booties to keep from skinning her paws. i hope that Rayne can get some relief. the hardest part was her inability to walk and her incontinence combined. i hope that Raynes parents can have a less traumatic experience than i had and i hope Rayne will get to live his golden years without pain.
We took our BullMastiff to a animal cracker after he slipped and fell down the stairs. He was jelly for her. Then he laid down and slept. 🥰 She moved and no one has replaced her.😫
Love the way you explain everything so thoroughly Dr Doug , even us non technical fans can get an understanding ! Rayne is a wonderful dog . Can't wait to see how he gets on in future videos.
What a distinguished gentleman Rayne is. Thank you for helping him feel better. He has such beautiful ears, and it was interesting watching them move when you hit some tender areas. His parents are so kind to have rescued him and take care of him in his elder years. Bless them and bless you for making him more comfortable.
Rayne is a gorgeous German Shepherd!!💗 Truly sad when our angels get elderly and break down,dogs have short life as is!!😓 Thank you "Wonderful Dr Doug 🙏✨🥰💜🌷
So glad for owners that bring their pets to you, doc. Why not do whatever you can to ensure quality of life... looking forward to seeing how Rayne incorporated your work and hopefully is walking better. ❣
What a beautiful dog! I hope the adjustments helped Rayne, at least w/comfort, but hopefully with a little more mobility! His parents are really caring and loving people! Great video, explaining all the reasons and adjustments.
I'm glad Rayne doesn't have degenerative myelopathy, because it's such an horrible disease. Thank you so much Dr Doug for helping this noble and handsome dog. I hope he will improve soon. His owners are really caring people and love him very much.
We always had German Shepherds in childhood and they are really wonderful dogs - so lovely to see gorgeous Rayne. You did help him su much - massage was something he really enjoyed.😊Perhaps he will come again?
Thanks for sharing your work with Rayne, Doc! The poor guy had head to toe issues, but he's got some age on him. I do hope that Rayne's parents bring him back to see you, Dr. Doug. I know that I require ongoing adjustments because my spine and spinal cord are a mess, too. Sometimes it seems that as soon as I walk out of the Doc's office and something has already slipped out. Yeah, I'm an oldie, too. Have a great week, everyone!!
Hi Rayne - I hope you're feeling much better today; your mom and dad want you to be as happy as you can be and they are really smart to ask Dr. Doug to help you. You're one very handsome boy!
My aunt had a beautiful German Shepard that lived for 19 healthy years. I Hope Rayne gets some relief and have a few more years, he's only twelve he Can get better ❤️.
Rayne is a gorgeous boy! I pray that Rayne does much relief from you working on him Dr.W. Regardless even if Rayne still needs his wheels Rayne will always be gorgeous happy and loving life. Awesome job Dr.W
I always admire the dedication of pet parents of challenged pets. Rayne is very sweet. It might be a good idea to have him groomed as it looks like he is shedding badly and a shave will help his sanitary area. Hope Rayne improves and comes back to see you again.
Rayne's daddy, here.... Rayne doesn't not have proper control over his bowels. And he often falls while pooping. This happened right before his visit with the doctor.
my senior german shepherd was double coated like Rayne and had similar issues with incontinence and mobility. she shed relentlessly, no matter what, and a shave was out of the question as double coated dogs can overheat and develop skin problems when shaved. we would use pet safe wipes to clean her up instead and came to live with the fact that her fur was going to be everywhere no matter what.
First time that I've watched your videos. Wish that I had a qualified dog chiropractor in my area to refer to. So relieved when you mentioned that you ruled out contraindications with the dog's veterinarian first. We have human chiropractors here that work on dogs and don't talk to the veterinarians first. I've never met a dog that did not like a good tail massage and stretch. Great video!
I feel so bad for the elderly German Shepherd who lost control of his use of his feet (hind).the worst. He’s lived past the usual age they live. I can’t stand them suffering. You are so caring and loving to all animals even if you wear yourself just about compete out working on them. I had to put down my brother and sister 14 yr. Old cats within 2 weeks of each other. But I couldn’t let them suffer.
Sometimes we have to tie these terrible decision and it is such a pain, I understand how you feel, I’m so sorry to hear. Thank you for sharing Stephanie.
So wild i have a cat we named Rayne, I rescued her from a flood hence the name Rayne but her rear leg was broken and dislocated and had to get amputated and sh doing absolutely amazing but this is the first time I ever saw the same name
Aww - poor boy! Considering his age, he's in pretty good condition otherwise... I'm just glad that Rayne has responsible owners who took him to see You, Dr Doug, before his atrophies grew any worse! Now, it looks like his condition can be managed well and hopefully he will regain more muscle control - especially of his bowels! No more styptic ice cubes, I hope... 😆 I'm really looking forward to seeing Rayne's progress and how much he improves! 👍
I am a human with low back issues I have L3-S1 fused and both Si joints fused . So lots if the same probs as this poor doggo. And I am so glad when I was hurt at 15 that my doc didn't refer to it as rear end problems 😂😂😂
Dr Willen, I hope Rayne gets improved with your help, I know that it won’t be perfect 👌but if anyone can help him, then it’s definitely you. His owners are very nice 👍, Dr Doug, the way you demonstrate and explain everything is on another level, even if we don’t understand the medical terminology, you certainly do it so awesomely 👏. Enjoy your memorial weekend doc.
I was watching this video, then i thought, i want to have this kind of relationship with my carrier, i something that i get excited to wake up and do it, for you is helping animals, for me i will figure it out. Thank you, you are special.
Wow, my 13 year old German Shepherd does almost the same thing. She crosses her feet the same way and has a hard time standing up. I keep thinking her times up but she seems so happy. I’ve taken her to the vet and the said it was just a nerve issue. I had no idea there were dog chiropractors. Im going to take her in.
I can see that The owners love Rayne so much and that makes me happy and the Dr. Is very professional and explains everything he's doing to your doggie.
Aw hello Ryane . You look just like my first German Shepherd Emma. She had the same problem that you have. She even had the same socks you wore in your video prior to your adjustment from Dr Doug. Oh how I wish I had known about you in 2019 Dr Doug. Ryane you are so handsome and very well mannered. Well Dr Doug i have a new German shepherd puppy and let me tell you she is kicking my butt lol.I forgot how hard they are. I don't remember I guess because we still had 2 kids at home and I guess they did the night time routine. Her name is Sina after my great great grandmother who was native american. Thanks for all you do Dr Doug. ❤💕💕
He's doing much better now, though not perfect. He still stumbles when he walks, but he walks much further now than he did earlier this year. He hasn't used his walker in a few weeks.
I have never heard that ice cube trick. My dog once didn't poop for 5 days. Went to the vet on day 3, gave her drugs. Didn't work. On day 4, my cousin was joking about giving her ginger water. So I tried it the next day in the morning, she pooped that afternoon. 😄 Now ginger water is always in my fridge.
Rayne is a genteel senior boy and handsome too. Dr Willen have any radiographs or an MRI been done on Rayne? I'm very curious to see if he has any pathology that may be causing the cauda equivalent symptoms. Thank you Dr Magic Hands for helping Rayne. I really hope your treatments help him have the best life possible.
Hey Rayne, You’re a lovely dog, your Mom & Dad adore you & it’s well deserved. Hope you feel a little better. Give that animal cracker a lick from the community next time you see him. That moment the Doc asks what the ice cube trick is 😂I didn’t know but was imagining. I had the same thought about moving it away in time! Google didn’t suggest ice cubes for humans, dogs only!
Great job Rayne. I see this vlog is only part 1. I pray in the next few weeks or months you work more with Dr. Doug and begin to feel much less pain and more relief. You may want to ask your mommy and daddy to buy you some doggie shoes. Dr. Doug, German Shepard are known to get hip dysplasia. Does Rayne have that going on with his hips?
I love Rayne. How is he doing these days? I noticed his eyes were foggy... Which makes me wonder: Are there glasses or contact lenses for dogs? If they can't see very well, like humans, is there special glasses for them? And if not, why the hell not? If they can't see very well, they can't walk very well, either. Like a human. Let's make their quality of life the best it can be. It's not difficult.
Where are you located? I would love for my husband to see you. He is a lineman and was severely electrocuted over a year ago and has healed tremendously but can only walk with a walker at the moment. He stays in pain in his lower back. I think you could help
Do you think glucosomen works for animals. My yorkie has had a bad hip and teeth. It breaks my heart that he suffers. It is hard for me that any animals.
Rayne is a magnificent elderly gentleman.
I do agree! 😊🙏🏻
Rayne is up again, frisky as a pup again.
Dogs are the best.
Yes they are …thanks Tom.
Rayne is such a noble looking dog. I know that if anyone can give him some relief and make him more comfortable, you can.
awww thank you Ann, such a nice comment.

Hi Angie, I hope that too.
Rayne is so sweet. I hope he has some relief now.
I hope that too, I think so the massage and adjustments were good for him. Thank you Dana for connecting.
Rayne, you are a Good Boy and very brave, too! Love, Aussie Robyn and Heeler Cassie! 🐈⬛🐈
Thank you everybody 🐈⬛🐈😀
It’s so heart wrenching when our beloved pets age and have health issues. Rayne is a beautiful dog. ❤️ Thank you for helping him Dr. Doug. 🙏🏻
They always have a shorter life than humans, I agree, it’s hard to see them getting older and in pain. Thanks for connecting.
What a beautiful boy Rayne is! I bet he felt much better after your adjustment. Senior dogs are precious.💗
I think so too!
I find so much peace watching your tender touch.
Love the way you explain everything so thoroughly Dr Doug , even us non technical fans can get an understanding ! Rayne is a wonderful dog . Can't wait to see how he gets on in future videos.
Sometimes explanations are important, not always but in some cases they are. Glad you could connect tonight.
Where's Part 2, is that the one where you tell us how Rayne is doing? German Shepards are my favorite. He looked so sweet.

Is chiropractic recommended for human with disc in lower back ? I have a huge pain on my right leg.
