BDP 009: Why Dogs Slip & How to Fix It

Welcome to this episode of the Buzby Dog Podcast, where we'll be discussing why dogs slip and the four options available to address this problem. As we cover this in today's episode, it is important to remember why this topic is so crucial to your dog's health and happiness. Not only does improved mobility increase your dog's physical health, but also the emotional health of your dog. Dogs who are slipping are usually living with some level of anxiety about moving around their home. This can impact the way they interact with their family. Dogs are very social, pack animals and they don't want to be isolated because they're physically unable to safely join their family in whatever their "pack" is doing. As we cover the 4 ways to help your dog avoid slipping, we start out with how dogs achieve traction and how their natural traction mechanism works. After we understand how dogs move around, we talk 4 simple yet effective ways to help them improve. If you haven't had issues with your dog's mobility yet, there is a good chance that you will have to address this issue at some point. Especially as your pet ages, mobility is a key to quality of life, so please share this episode with your friends who have dogs too.
