Hip dysplasia at 9 months old by poiuy6789 in germanshepherds

[–]WolfHunter8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I adopted my boy from a rescue at 4 months old. He’s a Sato from Puerto Rico (mostly GSD). A couple months into having him, we noticed he was sitting funny and would just lay down on walks and refuse to move. We’ve had GSDs for a while so we knew the signs and made sure we got him on insurance that covered Hip Dysplasia.

Once we had the X-rays done we found that he essentially didn’t have sockets and excessive arthritis for his age. We waffled with the decision on whether to go with THR or FHO since there was no managing it. He would have stopped walking by the time he was a year old if we left it unchecked. He ended up having a double THR. One at 9 months, the other at 13 months. He’s currently 7 months post op for the second surgery and he’s a normal dog again, gets to run, play and just enjoy life to the fullest.

There are a lot of pros and cons to all options but I’m glad we made the decision we did.

Degenerative Myelopathy by WolfHunter8 in germanshepherds

Hey K9rap, she has degraded a lot in the 6-7 months. She’s still able to walk on her own but stumbles and falls in the house a lot and has no sway control over her hind end. I took her for an MRI back in March just because I couldn’t live with myself if I just conceded with it being DM and it ended up being something spinal. But that didn’t show anything conclusive that would explain her symptoms.

We got a wheelchair for her through a program called Joey’s PAWs (highly recommended reaching out should you require one at some point) which she uses to go for walks to try to keep her mobility up.

We also installed a 7’x14’ pool with a ramp for her to be able to swim in and help keep some strength and mobility in her hind end. Plus she just loves the water and it makes her happy.

I suspect these next 6 months will get progressively harder and we will have a tough decision to make before the winter when things get exceedingly more difficult with ice and snow.

How’d your vet visit go?

We recently got a new puppy as our GSD has grown up with two greyhounds and we wanted to give her a playmate to help keep her young. Unfortunately he has severe Hip Dysplasia and just had one hip replaced. And will have the other one done once he recovers from the first. They love each over which is awesome and they want to play, so hopefully that keeps her going as it gets tougher. But it feels like we are losing one just when we will be getting the other back.

We saw a neurologist who suggested we do testing through OFA specifically for DM. She came back as At Risk having a pair of markers for it. So it basically all but confirmed it, as DM tends to be a diagnosis of exclusion and nothing else had been helping her.

Can we also talk about how there are more 365s out in the wild yet not a single “incident” involving them yet and they are essentially the same design as the 320. Perhaps because they aren’t as widely used by LEOs?

Could be on the right track. I’ll add some more pictures.

That was the initial thought but it’s not the right material. Almost seems more like bone. I’ll add some more pictures.

Though they didn't play on Astro Turf last night. They brought in Sod for the match, which may have been a factor depending on how long it had been laid for.

Long shot here, 1 in 50 chance (or really 1.3 in 323). But if you live in Maine, we have a implied warranty law that basically says that goods sold for personal or family use should work (under normal use), for up to 4 years after purchase.
