Osteoarthritis or Canine Hip Dysplasia
Immune-mediated, infectious, and traumatic joint diseases all can lead to the onset of osteoarthritis.
In dogs, a common cause of osteoarthritis is canine hip dysplasia (CHD).
The prevalence of CHD can be as high as 75% in some breeds of dogs. CHD mostly occurs in larger, rapidly growing dogs.
While CHD is a genetic disease, research indicates that excessive weight can exacerbate the incidence and severity of the disease.
Combinations of treatments are available for osteoarthritis including medical, alternative, and surgical options.
Maintaining a healthy weight, regular daily exercise, good nutrition, and drug therapy are widely used treatment options.
Osteoarthritis medications include carprofen and polysulfated glycosaminoglycan for dog health care..
