Give them a lift
Love a snuggle with your furry friend? Be sure to avoid uneven jumps on and off the higher platform. Train them to ‘wait’ by the sofa or bed, then lift them up, and down again. The best way to lift a dog depends on how big your pooch is:
- Small-medium – slide your dominant arm under the chest between the front legs, and tuck the back end between your arm and body as you lift.
- Medium-large – put your arm behind their back legs, your other arm around the chest in front of the back legs, then hold your pooch against your chest as you lift. With larger dogs, remember your manual handling training – keep your back straight and lift through your legs so you don't stress your joints!
- Very large dogs – get a ramp or step or use a board or bed (and a helper).
- Oldie, heavy pup or needs extra joint support? – Treat them to a step or ramp. There are lots of different dog ramps available, and most pooches take to them very quickly. Get inspired with some of these DIY ideas, or head to a large pet store to try out different kinds with your dog.
