I would worry about hip dysplasia with hips manipulated like that. Your dog is beautiful too and big. He is 50 lbs bigger
than mine and mine is big.
Well, the German dogs do have their hips tested and pass with an A stamp, but I do think their bodies overall would break down sooner because of the abnormal. Yes, Ash is a big boy, but extremely healthy and has barely any arthritis for being 11 so soon. I just give him a few different supplements, I think it helps...
