Dogs & cats are most often treated by Dr Clark visiting your own vet clinic (he visits each region on a regular basis). Please contact your vet to discuss this. Dr Clark also has his own treatment room at his property at Guildford, between Castlemaine and Daylesford. If either of these options aren't possible home visits can be arranged, though this may cost a little more.
It is critical for acupuncture to work well, that your pet is calm and relaxed. If it is tense or aggressive in a vet clinic, a home visit may work better. It extreme cases, a tranquilizer can be used, though this should be a last resort. In these cases alternative treatments may be better.
