Welcome to The Senior Dog Joint. By accessing or using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

About This Site

The Senior Dog Joint is written for people sharing their home with an older dog who has started to slow down. We cover joint supplements, orthopedic memory-foam beds, car and couch ramps, rear-support lift slings and non-slip paw grips, and we test what we write about with a real senior dog on real hardwood floors and porch steps. Nothing here replaces your veterinarian; it is meant to help you ask better questions and make your dog's days more comfortable.

Senior Dog Safety

Stiffness, limping or reluctance to move can be signs of arthritis, but they can also point to injuries, infections, neurological problems or other conditions that need a veterinarian. Have your dog examined before starting any supplement, and tell your vet about every product your dog takes, especially if your dog is on pain medication, blood thinners or has kidney, liver or diabetes concerns.

Follow label dosing by weight and never give human joint products or human pain relievers to a dog; some common ingredients are toxic to dogs. Soft chews can be eaten all at once if left within reach, so store them sealed and out of paw's reach.

Introduce ramps and steps slowly on a leash, keep them on a stable, non-slip surface, and never leave a dog unattended on a ramp. Lift slings should support the belly and hips without pressing on the genitals or a full bladder; stop if your dog shows pain. Check non-slip socks and grips daily for rubbing, swelling or trapped moisture, and remove them for sleep. Memory-foam beds should be placed away from heaters and checked for chewed or exposed foam, which can be a choking or blockage hazard.
