Canine Hip Dysplasia
Hello,
Recently my 8 month old Saint Bernard was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia. I'm looking to speak with anyone who can provide information regarding the various surgeries, costs associated, recovery time and suggested vets in Ontario or Michigan (if you were happy with the results of your pets surgery). I've done a lot of research so I know all the various types of surgeries available, but I always find personal success stories carry more value than the bare basics you can find on any website. Please provide me with any information you have, or reply if you would like to know more on the situation I am faced with with my Saint Bernard. Thanks so much! |

I think you will find the following Yahoo Group very helpful.

My first Alaskan Malamute had grade 5 hip dysplasia and was diagnosed shortly after she was spayed. I had pet insurance, luckily, as the surgery on both hips was $2500 back in 1993. She never had any problems after the surgery and lived to a good age of 12 1/2 years. Her surgery was done in Mississauga at a vet clinic that had specialists in bone surgery, eye surgery and skin problems etc. They did a great job! Recovery was good from both surgeries. Good Luck.

My 10 month old St. Bernard
Just stumbled upon this forum, and have recently had my pup diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia. I was wondering about the procedure with your Grace and what has happened in the last few years. Any words of advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

Sorry Melinda- not finding it.
Cost for our pup is estimated around $8000- $10 000 and we were hoping to find help with this, do you know of any organizations who may aid us in this process? Thanks again. |
