re: Anyone had a young dog with hip dysplasia?

While this is true you are completely taking the pain out of their life. They also will regain mobility that they lost with developing hip dysplasia. They can still run and jump and play. You can’t even tell that anything was wrong with the dog. Had it done with my lab when she was about 3. Lived until almost 15. Ran like a grayhound. Would jog miles with me after recovery. If you have a good vet and it is recommended I would highly recommend getting it. My dog went from limping and in pain back to a regular dog.
