Dr. Adie continues to further her knowledge and interest in anatomy and neurology attending courses in Equine Anatomy and dissection and hopes to inspire people with her passion for animal chiropractic through teaching. Dr. Adie resides in Lindsay, Ontario with her children and 2 cats Daisy and Harry.
Dr. Perry's interest in animal chiropractic started with his love of Boxers and competing in the show ring. He went on to study animal chiropractic at Options for Animals, successfully completing the program, and becoming AVCA certified in 1998. He has been treating animals ever since. Dr. Perry's animal practice has since evolved into primarily an equine practice. He truly enjoys treating horses of all disciplines and breeds. He especially enjoys treating standardbreds, working closely with trainers and owners. He currently divides his work week between people and animals. His growing interest in animal chiropractic led him to continuing studies in Advanced Animal Studies through Options for Animals International Academy of Animal Chiropractic. He has competed all the lectures and labs, and is currently working on the research required to complete his Advanced designation. Dr. Ernie Perry looks forward to sharing the knowledge and experience he has gained over the last 13 years. Dr. Ernie Perry shares his home with his wife, Dr. Gloria Bracchetti, Boxers Peyton and Isabella.
Dr. Bracchetti's love of animals and her involvement in the dog world led her to the study of animal chiropractic.

Dr. Bracchetti brings many years of experience in the field of animal chiropractic. She has worked in veterinary clinics across Ontario for the last 13 years, bringing a wealth of clinical experience. She feels very fortunate to have this opportunity.

In addition he completed the Canadian Animal Chiropractic Certification Program and continues to instruct at the program. He is also a member of the College of Animal Chiropractors and the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association.

When he is not practicing he enjoys travelling, his motorcycle, many sports and time on his family’s farm.
She has owned horses intermittently since she was 6 years old and used to compete on the A circuit in both the hunter and jumper divisions. However while in OVC she found that she no longer had the time to dedicate to her show horse. That is when she discovered the world of dog sports. She currently shows 4 dogs in agility throughout Canada and the United States. Her competitions partners include Monroe (Parson Russell – 2008 FCI World Team member), Gizmo (JRT), Bondi (Golden Retriever) and Torrent (Australian Kelpie).
