My four year old very tall English bulldog who has a nice waist line (people are usually amazed by this) and weighs in at 50 lbs has a new "popping" sound that comes from his hip when he runs or picks up his speed. He doesn't seem to be in pain but it is continual and not going away. It sounds very much like a joint pop from a knee of hip of people. His doctor examined it and manipulated it but could not make the popping sound while not in motion and offered to run radiology tests...which I was hesitant. He also doesn't seem to be in pain when this happens but I'm still worried. I've added glucosamine and chondroitin to his diet and tho its only been a few weeks I'm not seeing any improvement as of yet. Any suggestions as to what this might be? Has anyone else had this experience? Also I'm open to suggestion on how to improve things if anyone has anything as well.
