Canine Hip Dysplasia


Rio was diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia as a puppy.  Rio underwent
bilateral femoral head & neck ostectomies as a puppy to allow him to live a comfortable life.  He is now able to walk comfortably.  The type of surgery that Rio underwent can be performed at The Animal Care Center.  The other surgical alternative, Total Hip Replacement, must be performed at a veterinary orthopedic specialty center.
