“Luca takes the stairs himself again”
Luca is a Polish mountain dog of 14 years and weighs 41 kg. In recent years he's had more and more age-related troubles: stiff joints, slipping on the floor, and the stairs had been a bridge too far for months. We helped him up and down every time, but at our age that's no longer ideal either. Friends had had Dog Socky for a while and recommended it. The first two days were clearly an adjustment: he kept trying to take the socks off himself and walked a bit oddly. But on day three something seemed to click. He started walking more and was less cautious with every step. Yesterday morning we heard him coming up the stairs. By himself. Without us having helped him. We know socks aren't a miracle cure and that he's 14. But the anti-slip gives him confidence in his own body, and we see a piece of the old playful Luca returning.
