Please help! We have a 6 mo female GR (sweetest little girl EVER)
Diagnosed with Panosteitis, then subsequently dislocated her hip. Cranio dorsal coxo femoral luxation. Very painful.
Has any one had any experience with surgery to correct this hip problem?
If so was it successful?
6 months seems awfully young to have so many problems.
Our vet has given us 3 options 1) surgery 2) amputation 3)euthanasia
Our hearts are broken.

New to this post and forum. I'm sorry to hear what you are going through.
As I am searching for info on service dogs, I have come across several articles about grants for life saving medical procedures available to vets. The vet has to request it. May be worth a google and conversation with the vet. I know the grant organizations vary by state.
Good luck!
