WHAT’S NEW IN OUR WEB SITE LIBRARIES (since last month) HIP DISLOCATION It takes a great deal of force to dislocate a normal hip (and maybe not so much force for an abnormal hip) and some skill to put the hip back together the way it is supposed to be. There is actually a window of opportunity after which it becomes nearly impossible to get the bones back in place without surgery. And how does one keep the hip from coming back out again? Read this page in The Pet Web Library for details on the dislocated ("luxated") hip. CANINE PANCREATITIS Many people have heard of the pancreas but are not sure what it does, where it is, or what a disaster it can be when it gets inflamed. In the dog, pancreatitis is a frequently life-threatening classical disease. We have now added this information on Canine Pancreatitis to go along with the page on Feline Pancreatitis in The Pet Web Library.
