Limping that comes and goes is actually pain that's always there. 😭 Most dogs aren't hiding their pain, they're communicating it every single day. Dogs show us in the ways they live their daily life: 🕐 Struggling to get up from lying down 🕒 Groaning when lying down 🕓 Stiff after rest 🕕 Reluctant to jump in the car or on the sofa 🕗 Grumpy, withdrawn, fearful or anxious 🕘 Licking paws and joints or nibbling at back feet 🕛 Or just not themselves anymore I'm Angela Day, multi-award-winning Canine Rehab & Core Fitness Specialist. Over the last decade I've worked with thousands of dogs, from sporting champions, police dogs and service dogs to beloved family pets. 💞 By the time most owners recognize something is wrong their dog has been struggling for months, or usually years.🥺 But it’s not their fault. The problem is, no-one taught us how to read these signs. ✨The Canine Advocates Community exists to change all that. Pain recognition, core conditioning, injury prevention. ✨ This isn't about you being a perfect dog owner. It's about being an informed one and it's about prevention and acting quickly. Our dogs bodies will continue to compensate, and irreversible diseases like arthritis won't wait until we have a gap in our schedule. Free to join The Canine Advocates w/ @Angela Day 🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🤍
