THE IMPORTANCE OF DOG STAIRS
SAFE STEPS FOR DAILY USE
🩼 Orthopedic Damage: Dogs' bodies are not built for compressive loads, so cumulative stress from jumping can cause long-term musculoskeletal issues, including spine and joint damage, leading to early arthritis, IVDD, and other dangerous orthopedic conditions.
🚑 Potential Paralysis: Jumping and landing pose significant health risks, often leading to disc bulges or herniations that can compress the spinal cord and cause paralysis.
💥 Surface Impact: Sudden impact from transitioning between hard, soft, or slippery surfaces, like jumping from a sofa to a slick rug, increases the risk of injury.
HOW DOG STAIRS FOR LARGE DOGS HELP

⬆️ Enhanced Activity Levels: They encourage healthy activity levels at home, helping dogs strengthen their bodies comfortably.
