🐾 Arthritis in Dogs – The Facts 🐾
Did you know that 1 in 5 dogs will develop arthritis during their lifetime? Arthritis is a painful condition that causes inflammation in the joints, making movement difficult and uncomfortable.
Common signs include:
🐕 Stiffness, especially after resting
🐕 Limping or slowing down on walks
🐕 Difficulty getting up, jumping, or climbing stairs
🐕 Less interest in play or exercise
🐕 Changes in mood or behaviour
The good news?
Early treatment can make a huge difference! Weight management, gentle exercise, supplements, pain relief, and veterinary care can help keep your dog comfortable and active.
If you notice any of these signs, chat to our friendly staff at VetLove Strathpine because your dog doesn’t have to “just live with it.” 🩷🐾
