Chow puppy slams elbow. HELP!

Hi!
My 8 month old chow (Solomon) is just perfect. I have no complaints. I do however am concerned about his elbows. Every time he gets down to sit or sleep, he bangs his elbow on the floor. For example, he bangs his left elbow when he is getting down to sit on his left side and bangs his right elbow when he gets down to sit on his right side. He has always done this even when he was really young. But now that he is heavier and bigger, we notice the sound of his elbow hitting the ground even louder. We have hardwood floors and he bangs his elbow. It is loud enough that I can hear it every time he gets down on the floor to sit or sleep. I am concerned that this continued impact on his elbows can negatively affect him. Has anyone else experienced this with their chow? I would really appreciate any advice. Thanks
