    Species: Dog
    Condition: Carpal Subluxation
    Organ System: Cardiovascular

    Malformation of the carpal joint, the equivalent of the wrist in dogs. The cause of this condition is not certain, but most theories mention genetics, nutrition or injuries as probable causes. Symptoms start at the age of 3 to 4 months: puppies walk differently, their carpuses being closer to the ground, until they gradually start walking as if they had “flat feet”. After confirmed diagnosis, there are a few possible treatment routes, all having some success. The vet will recommend special nutrition and supplements combined with physical therapy to strengthen the joints. If this doesn’t help, surgical treatment is needed.
