Senior Dog Home Safety Checklist

A quick room-by-room review of floors, stairs, resting areas, and outdoor transitions, so you can fix the biggest risks before winter sets in.

Are the main walking paths free of loose rugs and clutter?Are stairs well lit and easy to grip?Can your dog rest without climbing or jumping high?Are outdoor steps and car entry planned safely?

Bring your notes to your veterinarian when a change is new, persistent, worsening, or worrying.
