On top of food allergies were dealing with bilateral hip dysplasia. Tikka became lethargic and we brought her to the vet. The doctor was unsure whether Tikka had a stomach issue or spinal issue. The doctor did xrays and he let us know of Tikkas hips. The doctor said she's most likely in pain and perscribed her tramadol and gabapentin. The doctor instructed no more stairs for Tikka. Tikka seemed to be getting better and she didn't seem like she was in pain at all. Then we were helping my brother move from his basement suite and Tikka unknowingly went up the stairs. Now she is in pain again. Last month Tikka was playful, going up and down stairs and now her playfulness has diminshed drastically. We were hoping medication would only be temporary. Is hip dysplasia a common condition amonst bullys and if so, are alot on medication? You advice and shared input would be greatly appreciated.
