What are the signs of a dislocated hip in a dog?

If you think that the hip is dislocated, then the dog needs to be at the vet. Would you want to be laying around with YOUR hip dislocated? If the leg is not bothering him with applied pressure, the chances are slim that it's dislocated. Unless it's a very slight dislocation or it's just not seated right. If my dog had been limping for a day, waiting another day would not be an option. Dogs limp because they are in pain - not for fun. My dog would be at an emergency vet getting pain meds and a diagnosis.


If someone has a dislocated hip?

A dislocated hip can be very painful. See a doctor to get an accurate diagnosis and prescribed treatment for this condition.


How can you tell if your dog dislocated its hip?

It limps. It's leg could be out of the hip socket above or below the socket. The leg may appear longer or shorter than the opposite one, and the dog will not want to put weight on it. There will probably be a space between the hip socket and leg bone. You need to take the dog to a vet if it appears to have dislocated its hip. Get to the vet fast! because over a few days, calcium will build up inside the hip socket making for a much more expensive vet bill and unnessecary hurt for the dog for the rest of his life.

How expensive is it if your dog has her hip dislocated?

This will depend upon where you have the surgery done at, the size and health status of the dog, and the reason for the hip replacement. The low estimate, including the implant, would be US$3500, although the cost could be significantly higher depending upon your dog's medical status.


Will a rabbits dislocated hip heal on its own?

I think you need to take the rabbit to the vet. The hip needs to be put back in again the way it was. Only a vet would know how to do this safely.


What can you do without going to the vet to take care of your dogs dislocated hip?

Unless you like teeth embedded in your arm, go see the vet. Dislocations can not, and will not, correct themselves. The dog needs to be anesthetised before anyone can safely reset the joint. Doing it yourself will likely result in injury to you and further injury to the dog.
