After surgery, dogs need a safe and predictable environment to heal. Jumping, slipping, and sudden movement can set recovery back or even cause re-injury.
Why Stairs Are Dangerous During Recovery
Stairs force dogs to:
-
Stretch surgical areas
-
Put weight on healing joints
-
Risk slipping
-
Jump down from heights
Veterinarians often recommend avoiding stairs entirely — but that’s not always practical.
