Well, what can be done, which we didn't do, is this. Teach them early not to jump up on people. Don't let them jump up and down from the bed and furniture. And like you said, watch their weight. Actually, I am not sure if these things would prevent disk problems. Sometimes they just happen. We don't know how Sadie herniated her disk. She has always been a wild little girl Beagle that loves to run and jump and play and chase squirrels and run scent trails in the back yard. We have about 2 more weeks to keep her as inactive as possible. She is doing better.
