Pet owners love their animals; they ensure their pets have the best life by feeding them, giving them attention and talking them out on daily walks. However, there is new evidence that a daily walk with a pet may put your hip at risk.
A recent study at the University of Pennsylvania found elderly dog owners are more likely to sustain severe injuries while walking their pets. Notably, the researchers found dog walking increases the risk for hip and upper arm fractures due to slipping and falling.
