    Warning Signs For Hip and Joint Health

     While it’s often more apparent in senior dogs, you should also pay attention to your dog at a young age to catch any warning signs that hip and joint pain could be hurting their mobility. Watch out for these signs of joint pain:

    • Reluctance to jump on the bed or climb the stairs
    • Difficulty getting up after laying down
    • Slow movement around the house (this one is especially important if you have a very active dog that has been slowing down)
    • Limping or shaking legs
    • Favoring one leg over another
    Unfortunately, a lot of your dog's favorite activities, like racing around your yard or chasing other pups at the park, can really take a toll on their mobility. Play time, stairs, jumping off the bed, and old age can really wear down your dog’s hips and joints. Luckily there are some signs to look out for so you can catch these issues early, and there are preventative care methods to help keep them healthy! Keep reading to find out more.
