Learn & Go with Dr. Laurie: Lordosis - Causes, Effects, and Treatment

Have you noticed your dog’s back starting to dip? Or maybe they’re moving a little stiffer, shorter, or slower than they used to?

There’s a good chance it’s something we call lordosis—and no, it’s not just “getting old.”

In this Learn and Go with Dr. Laurie, I introduce you to Queenie—a 16-year-old pup with a very visible sway back—and walk you through the real reasons dogs develop lordosis, the pain it creates, and the very real ways we can help.

You’ll learn:

• Why long nails (yes, really) can trigger back pain.

• What to look for in posture, stride, and muscle loss.

• My go-to treatments like laser, manual therapy, Assisi loop, and the cat stretch.

• Simple, hands-on tips to bring comfort and strength back to your dog’s body.

Whether you’re a vet, tech, or pet parent—this is a must-watch if you care about mobility, comfort, and aging gracefully.
