Snow brings a lot of fun for our dogs however, it can be the cause of many issues too.
How cold weather can affect our dogs?
❄️ Stiffens joints thus increases pain and lameness
❄️ Makes muscles tense
❄️ Can reduce the elasticity of tendons and ligaments
❄️ Increases risk of injuries
❄️ Increased pain signals like lip licking, grumpiness, change in behaviours, reactive to touch
❄️ Can cause depression due to shorter days and increased pain
❄️ Particularly affects our arthritic dogs so you may see them slow down and become less active
❄️ Hard ground increases forces going through the limbs so is harder on the joints
What can we do to help?
♨️ Put a jacket on your dog to keep them warm - a jacket covering the arthritic joint is especially good
♨️ Keep your dog mobile - little and often is better to mobilise the joints
♨️ Warm your dog up before letting off lead
♨️ Change the time and place where you walk to make it safe - walking in the daylight if possible to reduce injury risk
♨️ Stop play on or avoid slippery areas to reduce injury risk
♨️ Speak to your vet if concerned about increased pain so your dogs pain relief can be reassessed
Snow can bring a lot of excitement but it can increase the likelihood of injury so consider some adaptations to help your dog.
The cold weather again will predispose to injuries but also worsen certain conditions. If you are concerned about your dog then speak to your vet or a member of our team.

At FP Animal Therapy Centre, we offer Hydrotherapy services in both the underwater treadmill and pool.
Swimming is a completely non weight bearing exercise, this helps with any diseases like Arthritis as no pressure and forces are going through the limbs.
Rockit attends Hydrotherapy sessions in the pool after being diagnosed with Osteoarthritis in her shoulders and carpi, as well as Elbow Dysplasia.
Hydrotherapy works by using water to exercise your dog, to help increase range of motion of joints, increase muscle building and mass, increase fitness, alleviate inflammation, decrease pain and general well being for your dog.
If you feel your dog would benefit from our services please get in touch.

Skills I teach my puppies all through shaping. I use this skills to build proprioception and strength to help develop a healthy body. I use shaping to encourage independent thinking to help for the future goal of agility. Clever Herbie 💜
