Is your pup stumbling around your floor like he’s on a slip n’ slide? or maybe your old dog can’t stand up once he sits down? Unfortunately, the anti-slip solutions featured on this list are unlikely to be effective if your dog is slipping due to a medical condition.

Although carpets are comfy, we recommend hard flooring for dogs such as laminate flooring, engineered wood flooring or vinyl floor tiles. They’re easy to clean, and you can still have rugs and cushions for your dog. Over the course of the last five years we not only been growing as a business we have also been learning as we go. We have had the pleasure of working closely with Hannah Capon at Canine Arthritis Management as well as leading manufactures in the flooring industry. FFP have been involved in numerous new build and refurbishments of veterinary practices and even more exciting for us we are also finding ourselves specified in these types of projects. What do FFP do differently?We can also supply custom-cut mats for awkward shaped areas such as horse walkers. Please ring us and ask for a quote. Helping the Environment

Over the last 20 years Dog owners have discovered the limitations of many different flooring types for dogs; carpet, laminate, wood and tile. Each of which has limitations; either impossible to maintain, slippery, or non-resistant to scratches. These medical conditions can cause your dog’s legs to twist and his feet to slide out from under him when walking over slippery surfaces – you might even notice your dog’s hind legs doing the splits while he eats. One of the most popular ways to fix damaged paw pads is paw balm. Think of it as moisturizer designed for your pup’s paw pads. You might have the most angelic and well-behaved dog on the planet—but your pup’s behavior and temperament has little to do with the damage that can occur from sharing your home with a dog. When I became a nurse I did some home visits and became more aware that many people lived differently and had different types of home and décor. When I became an animal physiotherapist I became more aware than ever before, that there were other type of flooring out there were less than ideal. Some of the questions I have to raise with owners is, what type of flooring do you have? A common answer was laminate or tiles. As time has moved forward more and more people are opting for hard floors for the understandable convenience and cleanliness. Lots of the flooring has become more varied aesthetically, but many hard options remain shiny and hard and cold.Luxury Vinyl Tile – Textured vinyl with a rigid core, LVT is the relative newcomer to the flooring market. Ideal for using in kitchens and bathrooms, luxury vinyl tiles are fully waterproof. They combine a durable, scratch-resistant surface with realistic wood, stone and tile effect looks. An ideal floor is not too hard or cold. That might sound ironic when talking about hard floors, but if you fall on a tile or stone floor it is less forgiving than a fall on a less solid surface. The temperature is also something to consider. The circulation in paws and feet is poor compared to the rest of the body, so they get cold so walking on a cold surface is not kind, especially for arthritic toes. Many of our pets will also choose to lay in the room we are in and if they are laying on a very cold stone or tile surface then their muscles can become very stiff. They can also get sores on their bony prominences, like their elbows, from where the circulation is so poor as they have laid with the pressure on the skin for too long on a hard surface. They are easy to clean and can withstand pressure from large animals. Simply wipe clean for a fresh, clean look!
