Why tracking degenerative myelopathy matters
Because changes happen gradually, it is hard to tell whether your dog's hind-leg strength is holding steady or slowly declining without a record.
Signs like paw knuckling, dragging nails, or wobbling can come and go, and noting when they appear helps you and your vet see the real trend.
Consistent physical therapy and supportive care matter, but it is easy to lose track of which exercises were done and how your dog responded.
