yeah i member when i was a kid me dad had to have one put down for the same reason, she was only young but the vets said it would be cruel to keep her and not advisable with young kids about etc was about 25yr ago now dunno if they where hip scored back then like they are now? was sad stuff tho.
Weird thing was she was at the vets so many times and never a bother, that final visit though she knew something was up. She could sense it from me I reckon.

fucking horrible hay but the pain it can cause em its for the best to go to sleep, dogs are real good at picking up emotions etc from there owners and rotties especially i found em to be real intelligent dogs.

Not quite 4years old. She was big, even for a Rottie. Think that contributed to the hip score. I'll see if I can find a pic. I had a mini at the time. Used to drive around with her sitting on the back seat and she'd put her head on my shoulder. She was a sweetheart

my lads about 5 and is a bully breed, he's really tall at the back and short at the front with a lot of muscle on his shoulders so he he has a lot of pressure on his front elbows which will be a source of problems in the future. you can see it now when he 's inactive for a while or has been lying funny cause he starts limping like he is in pain.

when i took him the vets for his last vacs she was saying about how it's nothing too serious and it is just from the way he is built and they can give you supplements that help ( obv not fucking cheap!) i almost never got out of there cause she was in awe of his massive bollocks wouldn't stop going on about them, to the point i though she was gonna ask to be left alone with him the dirty slag. i can't lie though his bollocks are impressive i just didn't let on to her cause i wanted to make out like "yeah they're normal them, mine are bigger".
