From what I've heard from 3 Lab owners, hip problems are as common with them
as glove compartments are in cars. True?
Hi Doug.
From my experience, many of the larger breeds are prone to
hip-dysplasia, Labs and Sheps being the most notable. I'm no dog
expert, just relaying personal experience.
Then again, I have known a few labs that were healthy, and hunted,
well into their old-age. If you're interested in a dog, check out
its' lineage carefully for hip problems.
Good luck,
noah
