Hello,
I'm at my wits end, my vet cannot diagnose my dog and he still wants to fall to one side after running for the frisbee. He's7 years this October. His hip-displacia check when he was over a year turned out to be "Fair" when x-rayed. Also, today I noticed his hair on the back of his hips raise up like a cats does after he came back with the frisbee. Last Fall he was just fine, had no problems and went after the frisbee in no time catching it. This year he's not jumping for them like he did last year. He don't wimper and doesn't moan. He has no problems going up the stairs but seems he has some problems jumping up on the bed. LIke I mentioned my vets has treated him for an ear infection with antibiotics and some kind of steroids with some more pills that make him pee constantly I'm going to guess to help flush his infection out. Any suggestions would be appreciated if anyone has ever experienced these problems with their GSD. Thanks.
