For the dog with one stiff knee, hip or shoulder that keeps catching them out.
Ideal for older dogs, dogs with arthritis in a single joint and dogs with IVDD, our Small pad is fully cordless. Charge it, switch it on and place it exactly where your dog needs it: on a knee, hip or shoulder, or along a smaller dog's back, on the sofa, in their bed or away from home.
At 27cm x 13cm it's the most compact pad in our range, but it still has 60 LEDs of red and near-infrared light. Two straps, one long and one short, hold it in place, so you don't need to.
It's the smallest of our three pads: Small for one area at a time, Medium for larger areas, and Large for full-body comfort at home.
If one joint is what slows your dog down, this is the easiest way to start. Give it a go: if it isn't right for your dog, you have 30 days to send it back for a full refund.
The Small Pad is the best fit for dogs who:
For larger areas, our Medium pad gives more coverage. For full-body comfort at home, our Large pad lets your dog lie down and relax across it.
Still not sure? Send us a message with your dog's breed and size, and we'll help you choose.
Consistency matters more than session length: around 10 to 15 minutes a day, built up over time. P3 is the strongest steady setting, which helps on a thicker coat.
Measuring 27cm x 13cm, this is the most compact pad in our range, designed to focus light directly on:
Two straps, one long and one short, hold the pad in place, so you don't need to. See the photos of Hamish, a miniature dachshund, and of Mila, our 11kg French Bulldog, for a true sense of its size.
In the box: pad with controller, long strap, short strap, and a USB to USB-C cable.
Red light therapy (also known as photobiomodulation) uses specific wavelengths of light to support the body’s natural recovery processes.
This pad combines two types of light:
Together, this dual-spectrum approach supports dogs experiencing:

This product is designed to support comfort and is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any medical condition.
If your dog has a diagnosed condition or ongoing pain, speak to your vet before starting red light therapy.
If your dog has, or may have, IVDD or any back or spinal problem, speak to your vet first. Sudden pain, wobbliness or weakness in the back legs needs urgent veterinary attention.
Mila’s routine
Mila is an active 8-year-old who loves water, chasing balls and running after squirrels. So when she started slowing down after walks, struggled to get up and started to limp, we knew something wasn’t right.
After vet visits and X-rays, she was diagnosed with arthritis in her back legs. We didn’t want to rely only on medication, so we looked for something we could use at home to support her comfortably.
That’s when we introduced red light therapy into her routine.
Used regularly, we’ve seen a clear difference in how she recovers, less stiffness, more comfort, and ready to go again the next day.
She’s still the same energetic Mila. This just helps keep her comfortable doing what she loves.
Appears a good quality product and seems to be helping with my dogs movement and pain when used daily.. it’s not a cure but he’s very happy and relaxed to sit or lie while using it which I was surprised about so must be doing something positive and a bonus iv been using it to help with my arthritis in my hands and knees to test it and I’m impressed but il see how it goes in winter when my pain is at its worst. I do think it needs to be used daily for best results.
Thank you Julie, what a gorgeous photo. Really glad he's settled so happily into his sessions and that it's becoming such a positive part of his daily routine. You're absolutely right that consistency is key, it's very much a long-term commitment rather than a short-term fix, and we think that's exactly the right way to approach it. We wish we could offer every dog a life completely free from stiffness and discomfort, but if the pad gives them a little more ease and comfort in their day then every session and every penny is truly worthwhile. We hope he continues to go from strength to strength.

I was recommended this product for my dog some months ago, and it has definately helped him and his aged joint stiffness. Recently I had a knee replacement opertion and ordered one for me too to help with my stiffness in recovery. I have had it for a few days now and am begining to feel some benefit. Fab company, really caring and expert service.
Hi Karol, Thank you so much for taking the time to share this, I'm so pleased it's been benefiting your dog's joint stiffness as he's got older. It's brilliant that it's helping you both, and I hope you're feeling the benefit too as you recover from your knee operation. Just make sure you and your dog are taking it in turns, I imagine there might be a bit of queuing in your house at the moment. Wishing you a smooth recovery.

This has been a rewarding experience purchasing the smaller red light device, due to the great customer service from Elliot and Mia. Our JR is recovering from IVDD, he has weakness in his hind legs so we’re hopeful this will help his stiffness. He is very relaxed with it strapped over his back area when he’s resting. I use red light myself and have seen my own improvement using it, so to find a dog friendly small device is wonderful. I promise to send pics!
Hi Charlotte, thank you so much for sharing this, it really means a lot. I'm so glad you've had a good experience with the customer service side, and lovely to hear your Jack Russell is settling so comfortably with the pad strapped over his back during recovery from IVDD.
It's brilliant that you've already seen the benefits of red light therapy yourself, that personal experience clearly gives a real understanding of what you're hoping for him too. Wishing him a smooth recovery and continued improvement with his hind leg weakness.

Our boy Bruno has always powered through discomfort, so I didn’t realise how stiff he’d become until recently. He’d lie down fine but getting back up always took that extra second.
We started using the small pad across his lower back while he rests in his bed and within a couple of weeks that hesitation started to disappear.
It’s not dramatic or flashy just steady improvement. And honestly, that’s exactly what I wanted.
Worth every penny for the reassurance alone.
Thank you Daniel, Bruno sounds like exactly the kind of dog who just gets on with things, which makes it even harder to spot when something's not quite right. That extra second getting up is such a specific thing to notice and it's really encouraging to hear it started to disappear after a couple of weeks. Steady improvement is exactly what we hope for.

Ollie had to wear a cone after a procedure and was clearly uncomfortable being less mobile.We used the small red light pad across his back while he rested and it made such a difference to how settled he seemed.
He relaxes into it rather than shifting constantly. It’s given us peace of mind knowing we’re doing something proactive during recovery.
Customer service was brilliant too by Elliott when I had questions beforehand.
Hi Claire, thank you so much for sharing this. A cone after a procedure is such an unsettling time for any dog, and it means a lot to hear the pad helped Ollie feel a little more settled while he was resting. Seeing him relax into it rather than shifting constantly is exactly what we hoped for. I am really glad the customer service side helped too, it always feels important to make sure you feel confident before you buy, especially for something like this. Wishing Ollie a smooth and comfortable recovery.

I was fully expecting Ted to wriggle and protest but he just sits calmly. We mainly use it around his hips after longer walks. He relaxes almost immediately. After about a month of use, he’s noticeably less stiff after exercise. Subtle improvement, but consistent.
Also love supporting a small business where you can tell it’s genuinely used and trusted.
Hi Hannah, thank you so much for sharing this. Ted sitting calmly rather than wriggling is such a good sign, it always tells you the dog is comfortable with what is happening. Consistent, steady improvement after longer walks is exactly what we hoped the hip positioning would help with. And thank you for the kind words about supporting a small business, it genuinely means a lot to us. Mila would approve.

Our boy frank was diagnosed with IVDD last year and it completely turned our world upside down. Surgery was discussed, but we wanted to explore every supportive option possible alongside veterinary guidance. We purchased the small pad to use ir while on crate rest. Over time, we’ve noticed he seems more comfortable, especially after flare-ups or longer periods of rest.
This hasn’t replaced veterinary care but it has become a huge part of how we manage his comfort at home. It gives us reassurance that we’re doing something proactive to support his back. Seeing Mila’s journey gave us confidence to buy from ChillyPup rather than a faceless website. It feels good knowing the product is being used by real owners who understand what IVDD anxiety feels like.
Hi Kerri, thank you so much for sharing Frank's story. An IVDD diagnosis is genuinely frightening and I know how much it changes everything, the worry, the watching, the wanting to do everything you possibly can. It means a great deal to hear the pad has become part of how you manage his comfort at home alongside his veterinary care, that is exactly the role we hoped it could play for dogs like Frank. Mila's own journey is why we understand what you mean about IVDD anxiety, it is not something you can fully explain to someone who hasn't been through it. Wishing Frank continued comfort and stability.

I was slightly unsure at first as there are so many red light products online, but after reading about Mila and speaking to Elliott I felt confident this was the right one. We use the smaller wrap pad in the evenings while she’s curled up on my lap. It straps on securely but comfortably and Luna completely relaxes within minutes. You can actually see her settle.
After a few weeks of consistent use, she’s noticeably more comfortable getting up and doesn’t hesitate before jumping onto the sofa anymore. What I love most is how simple it is plug in, wrap around, relax. It feels premium and well made, not like some of the cheaper versions I’d seen elsewhere.
Hi Penny, thank you so much for sharing this. It is lovely to hear that the conversation beforehand helped you feel confident, that is always worth the time. Luna relaxing within minutes and visibly settling is such a reassuring thing to see, and hearing that she is getting up more comfortably and jumping onto the sofa without hesitating again after just a few weeks is brilliant. That kind of everyday improvement is exactly what we hoped for when we chose this product. Wishing Luna many more relaxed evenings on your lap.

We bought the smaller wrap pad for lottie as she’s starting to show signs of stiffness after resting. I didn’t want something bulky or complicated just something gentle we could use regularly.
She’ll happily sit on the sofa with it wrapped around her and completely relax. Within minutes she settles, and after using it consistently we’ve noticed she moves more comfortably, especially when getting up from lying down.
It’s not dramatic overnight magic it’s steady, reassuring support that’s become part of our routine. It’s so easy to use, and the quality feels far superior to others I looked at online.
Hi Amanda, thank you for sharing this. Steady, reassuring support that fits into a normal routine is exactly how we would describe what we hoped the wrap would do, so it is lovely to hear that is precisely what it has become for Lottie. Settling on the sofa within minutes and moving more comfortably when getting up from lying down after consistent use is brilliant to hear. Thank you for taking the time to compare it against others too, the quality is something we feel strongly about when choosing products for the range.

I use this red light therapy pad as part of my dog’s regime for arthritis. It really has helped her cope with the changes in her joints: added bonus is that she enjoys the warmth especially after her walk.
Thank you Jann, it's really lovely to hear the small pad has become such a comforting part of her arthritis routine. Enjoying the warmth after a walk is exactly what we hope for, and it's wonderful to know she looks forward to her sessions. We'd absolutely love to see a picture of her enjoying it if you ever get the chance to share one.
Elliott & Mila
The first time we used it, Cooper lay down and almost immediately fell asleep. Since then it's become part of his evening routine.
Very happy with it so far.
Thank you Natalie, that first session where they just switch off completely is always a really good sign. Mila needed a couple of treats to get there initially, so Cooper settling straight away is brilliant. We hope it continues to make a positive difference the more it becomes part of his evenings.

These red light mats are making all the difference to my pup with hip dysplasia. I was so sure it wouldn’t work and now I have both the large and small mats. The small one is great to run off a battery pack if traveling/ or plugs arent near by.
20 mins either side of his hips and he’s so much happier.
Hi Emma and Bruce, thank you so much for sharing this, it's lovely to hear how much the pads are making a difference for hip dysplasia. I love that you've found both the large and small useful in different ways, especially having the small one as a flexible option for travel when you're away from plugs. It sounds like you've really worked out a routine that suits him.
With wagging tails, Elliott & Mila
Good quality, straightforward to use and our dog enjoys it. Hope it makes a different will send a picture through
Thank you for this, really glad it's been straightforward from the start. We hope you start to notice a difference soon, and we'd love to see a picture when you send it through.

What’s great about this company, they respond. I queried when the red light pad would arrive not expecting a prompt response. I got one within 1 hour, which provided clear instructions on the postage and when the product would arrive. It did when they said it would and I even got a written email to say it had arrived! Nowadays that is a very rare. What’s great about this product, my dog has severe arthritis in his right leg, we use the pad on P1 for 20 minutes twice daily, I don’t know how it works, but when he first gets up after using the pad, he doesn’t limp at all. The limp comes back but I am hopeful with continual use this will ease in time. The product was provided with clear, concise instructions, in English. Keep going guys you are doing a great job 👏
Hi Jennie, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed review, it really means a lot. I'm so glad the communication around delivery worked well for you, keeping people updated is something we care about, so it's lovely to hear it made a difference.
It's brilliant to hear the pad is making such a noticeable difference straight after use, even if the limp does return for now. That's exactly the kind of steady, real-world improvement we hope for, and hopefully continued use brings that limp-free feeling for longer over time. Wishing your boy continued progress with his pain management.

Our Cocker Spaniel has had a few mobility issues over the last year and we wanted something targeted rather than a full mat. The wrap style works brilliantly for us and allows us to focus on the area we wanted.
It feels premium and has become something we use every day.
Thank you Peter, really glad the wrap has turned out to be the right fit. Being able to focus on a specific area rather than relying on them staying on a mat makes a real difference, and it's lovely to hear it's become a daily part of your routine.

After our dachshund's back problems we were looking for supportive options we could use alongside veterinary advice. The small pad has fitted into our routine perfectly.
The biggest benefit for us is knowing we're doing something proactive. Charlie is completely comfortable wearing it and seems much happier after his sessions. That peace of mind alone makes it worthwhile.
Thank you Rose, and we hope Charlie is doing well. That instinct to do something proactive alongside veterinary care is something we completely understand, and it's really lovely to hear the small pad has fitted so naturally into his routine. Peace of mind is so important when you're managing a dog's back problems.
Elliott & Mila
Our pug Frankie has arthritis its and we were looking for something we could use at home alongside the advice from our vet. this fits on her back legs while on the sofa
Thank you Jane, really glad you found us. Managing arthritis alongside veterinary advice is exactly the kind of thing the wrap is designed to support, and being able to use it while Frankie relaxes on the sofa makes it so much easier to fit into the day.

Our terrier Penny can be quite fussy but she accepted this straight away. The fact that we can place it exactly where she needs it is what sold it for us.
Simple, well made and easy to use.
We’ve tried supplements and various “joint aids” over the years, but this is the first thing where I’ve seen a visible change in how he moves.
We use the small pad directly across Jaspers lower back each evening. After a few weeks of using it he now stretches out properly like he used too.
I nearly bought a cheaper one online but Mila’s story made me trust this one more. I’m glad I did.
Hi Megan, thank you so much for sharing this, it really does mean a lot. Seeing Jasper stretch out properly again after a few weeks is exactly the kind of thing that makes this worthwhile, those small everyday moments matter more than anything. The wavelengths really do make a difference, and it is worth making sure you have the right ones rather than just going for the cheapest option. We are glad Mila's story gave you the confidence to choose well.
With wagging tails, Elliott & Mila
We purchased this for our Border Collie after noticing he was becoming slightly stiff after long walks. We already use supplements but wanted something else we could do at home.
We've been using the small pad most evenings and he seems noticeably more settled afterwards. It feels reassuring having another tool to support him.

How it works
Allows light to pass through to the skin beneath, rather than blocking it entirely.
Red light (660nm) is absorbed largely at this outer surface layer.
Red light, 660nm: absorbed largely at the skin's surface.
Where surface-level warmth is typically felt, as light first reaches this layer.
Near-infrared light, 850nm: penetrates further into tissue.
Near-infrared light (850nm) continues into this deeper layer, further than red light typically reaches.
Light reaching this depth sits close to areas of natural blood flow.
Red light therapy can feel like a bit of a mystery from the outside, so we wanted to show you exactly what's happening underneath the fur.
This diagram shows how red and near-infrared light behave once they reach your dog's skin. Red light (660nm) stays closer to the surface, while near-infrared light (850nm) travels further, reaching down into the muscle layer beneath.
It's a completely natural process, simply light interacting with the body. Nothing is injected, ingested, or absorbed chemically, which is why it's such a gentle addition to your dog's routine.

Full-body comfort for dogs who like to lie down and relax.
Our mid-size cordless pad, with more coverage for hips, backs and shoulders, at home or away.

Mila’s routine
This is what works for us, so we thought we’d bundle it. The Large Pad is part of her day, every day. The Small Pad comes out when a particular spot is feeling a bit achy, and the cordless Leg Wrap is for her really achy days or when we’re away from home. Having all three means she’s covered, whatever our routine looks like.
