Dr. Dusty Fuller (Rodeo)
Dusty Fuller, DC
Animal Chiropractor | Rodeo Insider
Dr. Fuller’s approach to rodeo chiropractic is grounded in a lifetime spent in rodeo and a professional focus on animal chiropractic for bucking bulls and bucking broncs. Raised on a small ranch in rural Oklahoma, he grew up immersed in livestock care, ranch work, and the rodeo lifestyle. From an early age, animals, agriculture, and competition shaped both his values and his understanding of what it takes to keep rodeo athletes—human and animal—performing at a high level.
His rodeo journey began in childhood, riding sheep he had bottle-fed and later making his first calf ride in the family arena. By age eleven, after entering his first steer riding event at the 4-H Rodeo in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, he knew rough stock events were his calling. That passion carried him through youth rodeo, high school rodeo (OHSRA), collegiate competition (NIRA), and into professional bull riding with the PRCA and IPRA.
Those years inside the arena gave Dr. Fuller a firsthand understanding of the physical demands, stress, and wear placed on elite rodeo athletes. Today, that same understanding drives his work caring for rodeo livestock—particularly bucking bulls and bucking broncs—where spinal integrity, joint mobility, and nervous system function directly influence performance, consistency, and longevity.
Dr. Fuller completed doctoral training in chiropractic, graduating from Texas Chiropractic College in 2014, and went on to complete extensive post-doctoral education in spinal correction while working in large, high-volume clinics and with competitive athletes.
He pursued advanced animal chiropractic training through Animal Chiropractic Education Source (A.C.E.S.) in Meridian, Texas, graduating in 2023. He is AVCA-certified and has completed additional education and certification in Food Animal Adjusting, which included focused training specific to bucking bulls and bucking broncs.
Maintaining strong ties to rodeo, Dr. Fuller has provided chiropractic care to rodeo athletes at the Senior National Finals Rodeo (2021–2025), International Finals Rodeo 52 (2022), NSPRA rodeos and rough stock events, the Coastal Farm & Ranch Challenge of Champions Tour (Wickenburg, AZ, 2022), and the INFR Tour Qualifier Rodeo (San Carlos, AZ, November 2025).
Currently, Dr. Fuller practices animal chiropractic alongside his wife, Dr. Tecla Fuller, at Alpine Animal Chiropractic in Mesa, Arizona. He also works with Dr. Bill Ormston through Professional Rodeo Chiropractic, where his primary focus is chiropractic care for bucking bulls and bucking broncs.
