As dogs age, it’s typical for them to start to slow down. Their joints stiffen, muscles weaken, and their range of motion starts to shrink. While this is a natural part of aging, movement for senior dogs is one of the most important ways to keep them comfortable, mobile, and happy!

I’m willing to bet you know your dog better than anyone. You notice when they move a little slower getting up, when they hesitate before jumping in the car, or when they seem just a little off on your daily walk.

Unless they’re visibly limping, it can be hard to tell what’s going on in their body…

Dogs are naturally stoic. Like most animals, they’ve evolved to hide pain as a survival mechanism, which means many signs of discomfort are subtle and easily overlooked.

Tension in the hips, back, or shoulders can shift the way a dog moves, rests, or interacts. You might notice they’re slower to get up, no longer jump onto the couch, or have become more sensitive to touch, especially around certain areas of the body.
