Yeah that's a real pain. My dog had hip dysplasia so bad she was starting to walk hunched over to put the weight on her front paws. She had a femoral head ostectomy at 10 months old. Basically the entire ball part of the hip joint on the top of the femoral bone was completely cut off. The hips don't join as a joint anymore, it's only muscle that supports it. At the time I didn't have $10,000 for artificial hip replacement.
