Tundra is getting acupuncture!

On Saturday morning, Tundra and I are making a trip to campus to get some needles stuck in her hind legs! Dr. Thierry Beths, one of the professors here (an anesthesiologist) has just become certified in acupuncture in Florida, and has been practicing on dogs of clients here on the island with great success. It works best on musculoskeletal problems, and Tundra has some slight arthritis in her hind legs. She is a little stiff at times, though she never limps, and she runs and jumps happily with no reserve. It is only after strenuous exercise that I occasionally notice her right hind shaking. Sometimes after napping in the same position, she is a little stiff when she first gets up, or goes up stairs. Tundra is currently half shaved and will be fully shaved by then, which will help Dr. Beths actually be able to see where he is sticking the needles. "T.B." is also a friend and a fellow SCUBA diver, and I'm so excited to see how this turns out!
