Your home environment makes a huge impact on your dog's long term joint health!
YuMOVE has partnered with Laurence Llewlyn-Bowen and Hannah Capon of Canine Arthritis Management to create The World’s Best Dog House – designed the keep our dogs happy and healthy for as long as possible.
Dogs can't grip on slippery floors, and constant slipping is hard on their joints.
You can help by:
1. Place non-slip mats high traffic areas. We love Hug Rug for safety and for style.
2. Try non-slip paint to increase traction - just make sure that is non-toxic!
3. There are non-slip booties for dogs, these can take some getting used to so take it slow.
Beds that are the wrong size, cluttered or made from the wrong materials can be a real source of discomfort for your dog.
How can you help?
1. Get a decent bed for you dog from day one, not once they are getting older.
2. Make sure the bed is big enough for the dog to stretch out fully if they want to, even if they seem happy in a smaller space.
3. Make sure it is a good, sturdy material. Memory foam needs firmer foam for support – check out the Big Dog Bed Company for more information.
Repeatedly jumping up and down is tough on your dogs joints.
How can you help?
1. If you just can’t say no to your pooch cuddling up where the people are, try getting small stairs to help them climb up and down with ease.
2. You can also get harnesses to support your dog up and down to their favourite spots.
3. Get a ramp to take in the car and encourage your dog to use that to walk in and out safely
Placing your dog’s food bowl directly on floor is a risk for neck strain.
You can help by:
1. Raise your dog’s food bowl to between elbow and shoulder height so they don’t need to bed down so far.
2. Place their bowl on a non-slip mat to avoid slips and spills

With over 50% of the dog population carrying excess weight, we live in an era of overweight and obese dogs being the social norm.
- Identifying your dog’s ideal body weight and maintaining them at it throughout their life is so important, as studies have highlighted that overweight dogs show signs of stiffness earlier in their lives.
- Excess weight carriage can reduce a dog’s life by up to 2.5 years.
- Simple modifications to the home, garden and lifestyle take little time to implement and maintain, and their impact could be lifelong for your dog.
- Broaden your field of vision and see your living environment and daily activities from your dog’s joints’ perspective.
High impact activities such as ball chasing and frisbee catching offer a lot of excitement, however should be done in moderation and avoided in puppies and young adult dogs.
- The skeletal and joint systems are not as strong as an adult in these younger age groups, and heavy, twisted landings can be very damaging.
- Activities with all four feet on the ground are more suitable such as hide and seek, playtime with other dogs of a similar age, walking and balancing over different surfaces and terrains, and fun recalls and basic training.
- A variety of low impact games are great for developing a healthy body and brain.
