We let our dancing foo dogs out to play!
In order to provide more information and classes about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for dogs, The Foo Dog TCM Learning Centre has been created. Very soon we will be offering CEU classes with various topics on veterinary acupuncture and TCM for licensed acupuncturists and acupuncture students.
There are also classes for the public on canine acupressure, nutrition and other dog health related subjects. If you are interested in attending or having a class in your area, please contact us via email.
As part of this educational out-reach we have created Squidoo lenses, which are informative
mini-websites about specific canine diseases and injuries. The goal is to provide as much
information as possible to those with dogs suffering from these ailments.
Here are a few of our lenses:
Treating Canine Stress Naturally

Treating Canine Torn Cruciate Ligament with TCM
treating canine cruciate ligament
Treating Canine Degenerative Myelopathy with TCM
treating dogs with DM
For more information on upcoming classes please visit the Four Paws Acupuncture website.

“Belle (Bellie) is a 12 year old German Shepherd rescued from a shelter. Over the last 6 months her hips have started to bother her. She started to fall while chasing the ball, and was in obvious distress getting up from a lying down position. Going up and down the stairs have become a chore and she can no longer get up on the bed.
This winter has been particularly difficult for Bellie. She can no longer bound through the snow or gracefully walk on the ice, leaving her with back legs that are shaking and in pain. The pained expression on her face was visible. Her vet prescribed an anti-inflammatory medication that made her sick after one dose. She suggested a different medication as well as acupuncture. Bellie was able to tolerate the new medication and it seemed to be helping her with the pain, but also appeared to make her lethargic.
I searched the internet for “doggie acupuncture” and was blessed to find Jeanie Marie Kraft. Belle is the type of dog that violently shakes with fear when she goes to the vet and has to get on a table. Jeanie Marie, on the other hand, came to her.
Belle was treated in her own bed and has been meeting with Jeanie for 7 weeks now. She is in pure heaven when she is having a treatment. She looks forward to it, and has a big smile on her face when I tell her “Jeanie is here”.
The acupuncture has helped her. I no longer give her any medications, rather, we depend on her acupuncture and home treatment that Jeanie Marie has prescribed. You can see the “relief” on Bellie’s face.
I am very grateful that we have had the opportunity to work with Jeanie. Belle is the love of my life, and to see her more relaxed state, her smile, and her pain-free expression when she looks at me is the most wonderful gift I could ever receive.”
Jennifer L.
Belle is the perfect dog to work with. She is well behaved through her entire treatment. I not only use acupuncture on her. I incorporate a laser, infared therapy and Tui na with a Chinese herbal liniment.
