Excess weight puts undue stress on the hip joints, so be well versed in the proper amount of food for your dog's breed and age (this varies greatly according to your brand of dog food). http://tinyurl.com/d5ueyp Proper weight management is critical.

It was terrible. I'm very sorry to hear about your dog. Good luck. I’m sorry that I cannot offer any advice but, I owned a German Shepherd once who came down with hip displacia at age 14.

Making sure his weight is always healthy is critical in helping reduce the pain for your dog. High protein and low carb diets are good for dogs with Hip Dysplacia Seems Hip dysplacia reduces the amount of exercise your dog can do, you need to make sure you have him on a low calorie diet.

Do some research on vitamin c and hip displasia. There are many studies that show that vitamin c can help a great deal with this condition and can be used as a preventative. I found some studies by searching the internet, I'm sure you will be able to find the information. I hope it helps your pup. Some dogs have HD so bad they have to be euthanized at a young age to end the suffering. I hope you are able to find solutions for your pup. Keep your puppy lean, weight will cause him more harm.
