“Bella is a fully trained 4-year-old upland game hunter. When she was 3, she became sore and lame after her land and water workouts. Both hips had arthritis secondary to hip dysplasia. Staged bilateral hip replacements were performed 2 months apart. The owner says, ‘she is fully recovered, back to training full time, and looking forward to hunting season.'”
