Canine Hip Dysplasia is a genetic condition affecting dogs, where the hip joint does not fit properly into the hip socket. This malformation can lead to joint instability, pain, and arthritis over time. It is most commonly seen in larger breeds, but can affect any dog. Symptoms of Canine Hip Dysplasia may include difficulty in rising, reluctance to exercise, and a noticeable limp. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination and X-rays to assess the hip joint's condition. Early detection and management can help improve a dog's quality of life through weight management, medication, and, in some cases, surgery.
