We've got a beautiful 9 month old rotty called Murphy who sadly got diagnosed with elbow and hip displacia today. We're devastated for the little chap. just wanted to tell someone thats all. I know he's not the first and unfortuantly won't be the last with this condition.

How sad. What does your breeder say about this? Did you purchase from an ethical breeder that used a contract with health guarantees?

Do a search on here for dysplasia and you can find lots of information on supplements, etc. that will help your pup. Being diagnosed this early in life can be tough but there are things (and surgery) that can be done to help him have a relatively pain-free life.
