Dogs of any age and size can suffer from joint and mobility problems. When dogs have difficulty moving, it affects their mood, their communication, and their play. Signs of mobility problems may include:
• Reluctance to stand up;
• Difficulty walking and climbing stairs;
• Limping;
• Stiffness;
• Sudden weight gain;
• Transition to a low activity level;
• Caution when walking;
• Change in behavior/hesitation to play;
These signs can develop suddenly or appear over time. Joint problems can lead to long-term mobility issues and health complications if left untreated. There are many causes for joint problems – genetically inherited, trauma, growth anomalies, infectious diseases. They can bring to the forefront diseases such as Hip Dysplasia and osteoarthritis.
Treatment varies depending on the cause and severity of the problem. In most cases, these problems can be managed and/or cured.
Your veterinarian is the best source for how to manage your dog's condition.
