Identify Hip Dysplasia In Your Labrador Retriever
Hip Dysplasia is a widespread condition that primarily affects large breeds of dogs. Hip dysplasia
is a painful, crippling disease that causes a dog's hip to weaken, deteriorate and become arthritic.
Hip dysplasia literally means an abnormality in the development of the hip joint. It is characterized by a shallow acetabulum (the "cup" of the hip joint) and changes in the shape of the femoral head (the "ball" of the hip joint). These changes may occur due to excessive laxity in the hip joint.
