Arthritis/Hip Dysplasia

+91-9940662347

Overview

Is your dog having trouble moving around like they used to? They might be dealing with arthritis or hip dysplasia - common joint problems that can make life uncomfortable for your pets. Let's break down what these conditions are and how we can help your dog feel better.

What Is Arthritis?

Arthritis is when your dog's joints become sore and stiff, making it hard for them to move easily. Think of it like a rusty hinge that doesn't swing smoothly anymore. Older dogs are naturally prone to developing arthritis due to normal usage of their joints. Another major cause of arthritis in dogs is hip dysplasia.

What Is Hip Dysplasia?

Hip dysplasia happens when a dog's hip joint doesn't form correctly. This poor fit causes the joint to wear out faster, leading to pain and stiffness. It's common in bigger dogs and can start when they're puppies.

Which Dogs Are More Prone to Arthritis?
  • Big Breeds: Dogs like Labradors, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds and Great Danes are more prone.

  • All Ages: While arthritis often affects older dogs, hip dysplasia can begin in puppies leading to arthritis at a younger age.

  • Overweight Dogs: Extra weight puts more strain on joints, making arthritis worse.

  • Diet: Poor nutrition affects joint health.

  • Activity: Active dogs wear out their joints faster.
