How to use this download
Support older dogs with more predictable routines, accessible spaces and thoughtful conversations with their veterinarian.
- Observe comfortable walking, resting, standing and stairs without asking your dog to push through pain.
- Review slip hazards, resting areas and access to water in the home.
- Use records to discuss mobility changes and possible adaptations with your veterinary team.
Practical example
A dog hesitating on a slippery floor may benefit from a safer surface after a veterinarian assesses mobility concerns.
Helpful to know: Do not attempt unprescribed exercise or pain treatment. A guide cannot diagnose arthritis or other conditions.
Watch for small functional changes at home
Note whether a dog hesitates on smooth flooring, avoids previously easy steps or needs more time to settle after moving. Review safe access to water, supportive resting places and household slip hazards. Do not test mobility by forcing painful activities or changing medication independently. Share repeated changes with your veterinarian, who can assess possible causes and discuss options.
What to check or plan
- Compare ordinary movement on familiar surfaces and note changes in standing, walking, stairs and rest.
- Check slipping hazards, floor traction, accessible water and comfortable places to sleep with the dog's individual needs in mind.
- Record what the veterinarian advises and update caregivers when routines, exercise or medications change.
Documenting a change in mobility
If an older dog hesitates on tile but moves more confidently on a non-slip runner, a factual record of the surface and movement can help guide a veterinary conversation. New or painful mobility changes should be assessed promptly.
