🐾 Helping Your Dog Live More Comfortably with Osteoarthritis 🐶💚

Simple changes at home and in the car can greatly improve comfort and mobility for arthritic dogs:

🏡 At Home:
🧤 Use non-slip mats on hard floors
🛏️ Provide a supportive orthopedic bed in a warm area
🪜 Install ramps or low steps to access furniture or outdoors
🍖 Raise food and water bowls to reduce strain

🚗 In the Car:
🪜 Use a ramp for easy access
🧺 Provide padded bedding for support
🚙 Drive gently to minimise jarring movements

Small adjustments can make a big difference in your dog’s comfort and quality of life.
If your dog is showing signs of stiffness, has difficulty rising or moving, or perhaps has demonstrated unexpected behavioural changes, it might be time to talk to the vet and get a multi-pronged plan a look after your furry friend 💙

💦 Hydrotherapy in a pool or aquatic treadmil 🤷‍♀️
🤔 Which is best for your dog ❓❓

It depends on your dog’s condition, mobility and rehab goals 🥅

Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
🏊 Pool Therapy (Swimming) – Best for Full-Body Conditioning
✔️ Non-weight bearing – Perfect for dogs with severe joint pain or weakness.
✔️ Great for muscle building – Works the core, shoulders, and back muscles evenly.
✔️ Encourages natural movement – Helps improve range of motion without impact.
✔️ Best for active, strong dogs – Ideal if your pup already has good mobility.
❌ Not ideal for dogs with balance issues, fear of water, or those needing controlled gait training.

🚶 Underwater Treadmill – Best for Controlled Rehab & Strength
✔️ Gentle weight-bearing exercise – Water supports movement while keeping paws grounded.
✔️ Great for joint recovery – Helps rebuild strength in muscles without strain.
✔️ Adjustable water level & speed – Allows slow, controlled movement for rehab.
✔️ Best for post-surgery, arthritis, or mobility training – Helps dogs regain proper gait patterns.
❌ Not ideal for dogs who need full joint relief or struggle with leg coordination.
