Dogs enjoy running, jumping, and playing, but all of this activity can be physically demanding. Whether your dog is a weekend hiker, a competitive agility champion, or simply a ball-chasing enthusiast, keeping maximum mobility is critical to their overall health.
Over time, repetitive motions, small injuries, and natural aging can cause stiffness, muscular imbalances, and even chronic pain. The sooner these problems are detected, the easier it will be to resolve them before they interfere with your dog's ability to enjoy their favorite activities.
A mobility check-up is more than just a fast overview. At Happy Paws Rehabilitation and Wellness, we evaluate your dog's movement patterns, muscle strength, joint health, and overall posture.
We may monitor your dog in activity, evaluate their range of motion, and search for tiny indicators of discomfort that would go unnoticed at home. These check-ups are customized for your dog's lifestyle, ensuring that active canines receive the individualized care they need.
Scheduling regular mobility check-ups for your active dog is like giving them a tune-up. These assessments can help:
Plus, catching issues early often means less invasive treatments, saving you stress and potentially costly interventions down the line.
Even the most energetic dogs might exhibit subtle movements that indicate a need for professional treatment. Look for indicators such as decreased stamina, limping, hesitation to jump or climb stairs, or a change in their typical zest for play.
These warning indicators might be subtle and hard to notice, which is why regular check-ups are essential. Your dog may be adept at disguising pain, but their body will appreciate you for taking action.
