As Maya is my only child, we do our best to give whatever she fancies as long as it will help her learn new things and develop her character as well. Even at her young age of 8, she already displayed an interest in horses and she’d love to have her own pet horse. Since the price of a pony is beyond our budget, we had to wait for several years before buying her a horse. Besides, we want to be certain that she really wants the horse and it’s not just a passing fancy. When we gave her Black Beauty, she jumped for joy and was so excited. Eventually, she learned how to ride a horse and was more eager to teach her new pet some tricks such as jumping and galloping.
Black Beauty wasn’t a young horse. The primary reason why we were able to buy the horse was because the owner was facing foreclosure of his farm and he wanted to save his farm and home thus, he was forced to sell his prized possessions. That’s why we weren’t aware that Black Beauty was already 15 years old by the time we bought her. In just a little over a year, the poor equine started to exhibit signs of aging and was starting to disobey Maya whenever she asks the beast to jump or do some exercises.
The lackluster performance of the horse has also affected our Maya’s disposition. She became less enthusiastic and depressed because she thought that the reason why Black Beauty was acting up was because of our daughter’s poor leadership skills. Our Maya has the vaguest idea that the root cause of the problem is horse arthritis which can trigger extreme animal joint pains, unfortunately. I wanted to ease up the situation so I checked the internet and searched for clinics that treat animal joint pains. It was really a blessing that I stumbled upon the website of Animal Fitness Center, an animal chiropractic clinic.
We took Black Beauty to the Animal Fitness Center so that Dr Ava Frick can determine her health problems. She immediately told us about animal joint pains and explained to us that chiropractic sessions, as well as Alpha-Stim 100 (a medical device that emits microcurrents to relieve pain and tension), will help ease the arthritic pain suffered by Maya’s pet. Further, Dr Frick designed a pain management therapy that focuses on Black Beauty’s nutrition and well-being.
We were impressed by the fast recovery and the notable improvement even after a few weeks of therapy. Maya also realized that it was the animal joint pains that was to blame for her pet’s sufferings. Now, she is back to her old happy self, Black Beauty is better now.
