Chiropractic college student clinics cannot be expected to do the job of clinical research and certainly results from such facilities would be jeopardized by the level of practitioners doing the adjusting. Clinical studies can also be run on sick animals. I personally have adjusted scores of dogs, including many dachshunds that are paralyzed from the waist down from a peculiar subluxation. The subluxations are found in the lower thoracic and upper lumbar regions, usually with a concomitant upper cervical subluxation. Speaking of upper cervical subluxations, epilepsy comes to mind.
Dogs do suffer from epilepsy and, just as in people, they respond well to chiropractic care.
I have adjusted a number of epileptic dogs but one particular case of mine stands out in my mind. I wrote an article a few years back for the Prairie States Chiropractic Journal on this case. They all knew that if she suddenly went into a rolling, kicking, and threshing seizure, it was epilepsy. Yes, she was on drugs, but it still did not control the problem. She happened to listen to a woman in the waiting room talk about how much her daughter had been helped by chiropractic care for her epilepsy.
