Hi Priya, 40days is too early to confirm hip dysplasia. We have to wait until 6months to confirm it as hip dysplasia

Observe the signs like difficulty in climbing steps, sitting in frog posture, pain after long walks etc.

Hey Dr Supriya. My pup has little difficulty in walking from left leg. Can it be because of tiles of house or he is way too young.

And can we allow climbing stairs in 40-50 day pup ?

Hi Priya, it might due to smooth surfaces and cold. But it is better start with a calcium supplement for him. If he is feeling difficultly in walking I wouldn't recommend to allow him to climb stairs otherwise not a problem.

N thank you so much Dr Supriya for ur help. I am myself a doctor. I thought ortolani test might help as it is done in babies. I guess I will allow him to settle for a week or so

I understand your concern Priya, start with supplement and make him walk on rough surfaces atleast for an hour every day. If there is no improvement we can schedule a physical examination.

Our Pomeranian 1.7 years pet frequently has below issues once in two weeks - 1. Vomit ( toxic foam like water ) 2. And if it gets severe he ll be very low for 2 to 3 days ( like he keeps standing at same place, it won't be active as normal days ). Food habit : 7 am : rice + curd + milk 2pm : rice + curd + some vegetables ( this we started from yesterday ) 7 pm : rice + curd + milk Please suggest what needs to be done or is there any serious problem.

My 7 month shih Tzu has vomited twice in morning in past 4 days. We are giving Rantac before food and Metrogyl after food twice a day 1 ml each. This morning we again saw white foamy vomit in his bed and gave the rantac. Afterwards he is not eating anything but drinking water. His stool is normal and so are his activities. We tried giving pumpkin, curd and his treat biscuits but he just puts in his mouth and then out. Should we be worried?
