Senior and disabled dogs may lose traction and the ability to navigate smooth surfaces like they used to. PawFriction is a paw pad coating system designed to improve quality of life for senior dogs and dogs with orthopedic or neurological conditions. PawFriction decreases sliding on smooth floors, increases mobility, and reduces risk of injury.
For aging pets, mobility is life. Muscle loss, arthritis, orthopedic/neurologic issues, and general aging can cause dogs to have significant mobility problems, especially on hardwood and other smooth floors. PawFriction was created to give your senior dog a new lease on life by giving them the ability and confidence to get around. PawFriction immediately restores your dog's traction without the need for individual sizing or placing objects over the foot.
Postoperative recovery: back surgery, knee surgery (TPLO, TTA, lateral suture), amputations
Confidence issues: reluctant to walk on smooth floors
Increasing the success of rehabilitation or physical therapy
Other conditions that can make walking on smooth floors difficult
Why it Works Use It or Lose It Without use, muscles lose their tone and flexibility and atrophy over time. Unfortunately, many degenerative diseases worsen without movement and exercise.
PawFriction allows your dogs to use their muscles as they normally would, enabling them to strengthen and help fight off orthopedic, neurological and degenerative diseases such as arthritis and dysplasia. In addition, your vet may recommend PawFriction as part of their post-operative rehabilitation. PawFriction enhances your dog’s downward leg force by preventing lateral slipping and splay-legging increasing mobility and confidence.
