Home Environment Management
Restricting hazards around the home can help prevent repetitive trauma on already weaker and painful limbs. Adaptions include
-
non slip mats on slippery flooring - providing grip which helps with mobility.
-
minimising access to stairs - to avoid impact on joints
-
comfortable and correct sized beds (so the dog can stretch out and supports their backs) in suitable location (ie avoiding drafts)
-
ramp for access in and out of car/garden, buggies when out walking to increase stimulation whilst not over exercising
-
raising feeding and water bowls to avoid weight bearing down onto painful joints.
-
grooming - ensuring your dog's nails & fur inbetween pads are regularly trimmed.
