Hip dysplasia surgery for pups

Post by Bill in Oregon »

My ex recently adopted a German shepherd puppy, and X-rays show Arlo faces hip issues. Fortunately there is now a fairly simple procedure that will head off the crippling hips that break shepherd owners' hearts. If you have a young pup prone to dysplasia, here is an answer to prayer.

That's cool! I've never had a Shepherd but that's a great thing to know.

Great picture too!

Gunny, my ex knew going in that the breeder didn't guarantee hips. I am just glad there is an option -- because of course now they have bonded deeply.
