FurRamp - Protect Your Dog's Spine
What Vets Wish You Knew Sooner to Save Your Small Dog's Health 🐾
Oct 18, 2025 | by Fur Mob Advisor
If your dog jumps on and off your couch or bed, you need to read this.
Because right now, as you're reading these words, thousands of dogs across America are landing from jumps that are silently damaging their spines and joints - one leap at a time.
And their owners have no idea it's happening.
The Breeds at Highest Risk (But ALL Dogs Are Vulnerable)
Some breeds are genetically predisposed to spinal and joint problems:
High-Risk Breeds:
- Dachshunds - 1 in 4 will develop IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease)
- Corgis - Long backs with short legs = spinal stress
- French Bulldogs - Compact bodies, heavy impact
- Basset Hounds - Low-slung frames, disc compression
- Beagles, Pugs, Shih Tzus - All at elevated risk
The bottom line: If your dog jumps, they're at risk.
The Hidden Truth About "Harmless" Jumping
Here's what most veterinarians won't tell you during a routine checkup (unless you specifically ask):
Every single time your dog jumps down from furniture, their spine compresses with 2-5 times their body weight in force.
If you have a 30-pound dog, that's 60-150 pounds of pressure slamming through their vertebrae, discs, hips, and joints - every single time they hop off the couch.
Now multiply that by how many times they jump each day:
✅ Off the bed in the morning
✅ On and off the couch (3-5 times)
✅ In and out of the car
✅ Back on the bed at night
That's 200+ high-impact landings per week.
10,000+ per year.
And you're probably thinking: "But my dog has been jumping their whole life and they're fine!"
That's Exactly What Makes This So Dangerous
Dr. Sarah Morrison, DVM, who specializes in orthopedic veterinary care, explains:
"The damage from repetitive jumping is cumulative and invisible. By the time owners notice symptoms—limping, hesitation, yelping—the deterioration has been happening for months or even years.
I always tell my clients: if you can prevent the damage from ever starting, you should.
Because once those discs degenerate or that cartilage wears away, you can't rebuild it."FurRamp: The Science of Impact-Free Movement
A FurRamp does something beautifully simple: it replaces high-impact jumping with low-impact walking.
Instead of your dog's full weight + gravity slamming through their spine...
They simply walk up a gentle incline, distributing pressure evenly across all four legs.
The result?
✔️Zero compression on vertebrae and discs
✔️Minimal stress on hips and joints
✔️No jarring impact on landing
✔️Natural, comfortable movementThe Best Time to Protect Your Dog Was Yesterday. The Second Best Time Is Today.
Look, I get it.
Your dog seems fine right now. Maybe they're only 2 years old. Maybe they're 6 and still bouncing around.
That's exactly when prevention matters most.
Because the damage is happening whether you see it or not.
Every day you wait is another 20-30 high-impact jumps.
Another week is 200+ compressions.
Another year is 10,000+ potential injuries.
The pet parents who feel the most regret are the ones who say:
"I knew about Pawramp, but I kept putting it off..."
"I thought we had more time..."
"I wish I'd protected their joints when they were younger..."
