We're excited to share expert insights from our vet, Dr. Heidi, where she dives into a topic that affects dogs at every life stage: joint health & mobility 🐾💛 This complete video is now available to watch right here on our website!
Many dog parents associate joint issues with older dogs, but joint health is something worth thinking about long before any stiffness sets in. From comfortable movement and energy levels to quality of life and long-term vitality, healthy joints can influence so much of how your dog feels day to day.
In this full video, Dr. Heidi explains the foundations of joint health and why supporting your dog's mobility may have benefits that go far beyond simply keeping them moving.
In this session, Dr. Heidi covers:
Why joint health matters - and the important role that cartilage, inflammation, and nutrition play in keeping joints healthy over time
Signs to watch for - including stiffness after rest, reluctance to jump or climb stairs, changes in gait, reduced activity levels, and other indicators that your dog's joints may need extra support
The joint-weight-mobility connection - how body condition and overall health can influence joint comfort and long-term mobility
How to Support Your Dog's Joint Health
Dr. Heidi also shares practical tips to help maintain healthy, comfortable movement:
Start early - joint support isn't just for senior dogs; building a foundation early can make a real difference later in life
Support from within - using daily supplements that help support joint comfort, cartilage health, and overall mobility
Stay consistent - small daily habits that can help promote long-term joint health and resilience
