bad hips (11 replies)
|
|
I just got the prelims X-rays done of my dog. The hips are not good. I got the review done by SV and they say that they will not be able to give A stamp. I'm in a dilemma. I'm stuck witha pup I love but I cannot pursue my goals with him. I do not want to get him neutered just yet. I may or may not use him for breeding but If I do I will sell pups as pet quality.
My question is, is there some surgery to correct bad ball and socket. There is no dysplasia for sure only thing the ball of the joint is not well deep enough into the socket and the socket is not well rounded. What do I do. Please PM me I need all the help. I'm really in a tough situation. I just don;t want to throw the dog away. He is one year old. and done some basic obedience.

Why don't you scan and post your report from the SV here and perhaps then someone would believe your bs. Nothing you wrote here seems credible at all for a number of reasons anyone experienced with the SV and basic hip knowledge would know. Why don't you stick with issues related to your large parrots. |

Dogblood, Can you post up the pictures of the Hips X-rays and maybe some of the more experienced people here can help determine if the x-rays were positioned incorrectly? If for any reason the dog is diagnose of having HD, the last thing you would want to do is to breed this dog to produce more HD puppies and selling them for pet quality doesn't help the situation. It will only produces more heartbreaking individuals such as yourself because they found out that their dog also has HD. Would you want that to happen and to explain a buyers child that their best friend needs to be put down because of a ruthless breeder decided to breed their male that has HD? I also couldn't help but to view your other thread, “puppy replacement policy” and you mention about a replacement of an older puppy that has Monorchid. Is this the puppy that you're discussing here? Why would you even consider breeding this dog?
Before we discuss surgery to correct anything, just how serious is the results? Is your puppy showing physical symptoms? Is he limping? Is he in pain? Don't go by the results, only by the discomfort. If you truly love your dog you wouldn't put your dog thru this stress of surgery and recovery. |

Whatever is said on here it will make no difference to the result and i mean no disrespect to any who might give there opinions should you put them on here, In fact some of the replies may make you dwell on it more.
Its a hard thing to face and i am sorry it is not better, but why would you even consider breeding with the Dog if the Hips are not breedable quality, Pets or otherwise if the Pups inherit the fault it will not change them just because they are house pets they will possibly suffer in the end,
I would not consider breeding with it if it was mine,If you have surgery on its Hips i cannot see it will work the same, plus it will not give it a better grading of the Hips and the stress caused to the Dog is the priority, Are they that bad it is suffering now, better to give it a good Joint supplement to try and help it
Hard as is is Enjoy the dog as it is,
Your dogs loyalty and feelings for you will not change, good hips or not
Good Luck

if you have an ounce of common sense you will get that dog neutered or you are being compleatley irrisponsile
the main reason we have hip issues is people like you who are thinking of themselves and thair pockets.
DONT DO IT!!!! |

Don't breed the dog....as for working/sport intentions...an X-ray would not make my determination as to whether to continue with these endeavors. We as a society have become TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON X-RAYS FOR everything and its not necessary and sometimes prudent. Many many great police, herding, military dogs were a grade one or two dyplasia and worked until they were 7, 8, 9 years old. Differents factors such as pain tolerance, strength of liagment/tendons, whether dyplasia is fronm structural or laxity, factor into whether the dog shows outward effects of this disease. Breed...NO, still work the dog..?.that depends on whether the dog SHOWS to be a good candidate by its performance. If you hadn't done the x-rays and didn't see any problems physically what would have been the reason to discontinue???? |

Surgery will not change genetic inheritance, whatever quality of pup you are contemplating breeding. You should not breed, a pet dog in pain equates to exactly the same as a show dog in pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Faulty genes do not discriminate. Can you guarantee that saids pups will not be bred from again, thus perpetuating the original fault? Duh, wake up and smell the coffee. |

Does that mean I could shave a longcoat and get standard coat pups? Or even dye a light sable to improve the progeny's pigment? |
