I cannot provide a comprehensive answer to your query about home remedies for a limping dog, as the provided search results focus on hip dysplasia in dogs. However, I can share information about hip dysplasia.
Hip dysplasia in dogs is an abnormal development of the hip joint, usually in medium and large breeds. Signs include decreased ability to exercise, lameness in the hind limbs, reluctance to climb stairs, and pain during hip movement. The abnormality develops after birth, weakening the supportive tissue around the hip joint and separating the head of the femur from the acetabulum of the pelvis, which can lead to degenerative joint disease. Factors such as growth rate, exercise, nutrition, and heredity can influence the incidence of hip dysplasia. Medical and surgical treatments can relieve discomfort and slow the disease’s progression, but they are not curative.
