Fun fact - extra weight doesn’t only put additional stress on arthritic joints, but because fat cells are inflammatory it hastens the arthritic process! Please ask your vet at the next appointment if they’re happy with your dogs weight!

5 ARTHRITIS MYTHS BUSTED IN 5 DAYS!Myth #4 - Dogs with arthritis shouldn’t exercise. Not true! Movement is soooooooo important!!! Resting too much can actually encourage more stiffness, more pain and more muscle loss from inactivity!

5 ARTHRITIS MYTHS BUSTED IN 5 DAYS!Myth #3 - Arthritis is just wearing away of the joint cartilage. Not true! It does so much more than that but most importantly (to a physiotherapist!!!) it weakens surrounding muscles so strengthening exercises help build stronger muscles to support arthritic joints so there is less pain and better mobility.

Stopping to smell the air! 🛑

Do you find it hard to rest even when you know it’s important? I definitely do!

Imagine how hard it is for our dogs who can be so focused and driven despite their pain!

By observing them closely you’ll be able to tell when it’s time to rest and when it’s time to move and guide them through this!

This is beautiful Riko and he is 13 years old. After just three weeks of using the exercises in the 8 week hip arthritis ebook and the post CCL surgery rehab guide his mom noticed that he can sit straighter, is able to jump onto the couch and into the car again, has more energy and is more comfortable! 💙🐾

If your dog has a CCL tear it can be really hard to know what to do. You need to consider the cost of treatment, the commitment and demands it puts on you and of course how your dog will feel and make a choice on their behalf. It’s tough! The latest blog looks at surgical and non surgical treatments.

Because there are so many structures affected by arthritis is the reason why treating it needs a multimodal approach.

For example, supplements and injections can help within the joint but doesn’t help the muscles outside the joint which, this is why strengthening exercises are so important!

Being the decision maker for our dog can be scary at times. Am I doing the right thing? Will they be worse off? How can I make them comfortable? These are just a few questions of what you might be asking yourself if your dog has had a cruciate tear. Hope these help guide you to making a decision that gives your heart peace. ❤️🐾

Cookie stretches are when you move a treat towards their hip so they turn to grab it. This causes the spine to bend and this helps the joints get looser and surrounding muscles get a stretch!

Kiba has some degeneration in his back and this would cause some stiffness and pain. This exercise is great for that and although we aim for the hip I don’t mind if he doesn’t want to stretch that far and only gets to his belly.

This screenshot was taken as I was doing the exercise so this is just the start as I’m guiding him around. At this point only his neck has a stretch but we need to bend further so his lower back can have a stretch too.

I love taking my babies out for a walk! I love getting out and I love seeing them enjoying all the sights, sounds and smells! BUT…keeping them strong isn’t about walking them! Slightly reduce your walk time and spend it strengthening them with some home exercises! #strengtheningfordogs #seniordogs #huskiesofsydney #walkyourdog #itstheirwalk #dogmom #dogmum #doggosofsydney

Exercising indoors doesn’t have the fun smells of the outdoors BUT it will help strengthen your dog to have less pain and better function as they age! #sarcopeniaindogs #arthritisindogs #seniordogs #strengthtrainingfordogs #huskiesofsydney

Don’t give up if you don’t see results from exercises, try and do the right ones in the right quantity! 💪🏼❤️🐾 #dogphysio #dogrehab #seniordogs #dogswitharthritis #exercisetherapyfordogs #strengthtrainingfordogs #caninephysio #dogtraining

Keep trying if your dog doesn’t seem to “get” it! Try a different command, different hand potion, different exercise equipment or even a different treat! Try a few times and if it’s still not working give them a rest and try again another time. They may just not want to do it!! #proudhuskymum #gorgeoushusky #dogrehab #exercisetherapyfordogs #caninerehab #caninephysio

Supplements can be a great addition to promote health in a variety of ways and there are soooooo many out there for joint health which claim to decrease pain. The only way to know is to try them one at a time and observe any changes. Although supplements may work they’re not meant to be used in isolation, ask your vet what other ways you can help your dog…pst..exercises help pain too 😜

Limping is not normal! Some dogs may only limp at the end of a walk or maybe only when they’re running, however regardless when it happens limping isn’t normal and indicates pain. Please ask your vet to do a pain assessment! #animalpainawarenessmonth #limpingisnotnormal #painindogs #dogswitharthritis #dogswithhipdysplasia #ccltearindogs #seniordogs #dogmom #dogmomlife
