   About AMAIZE AHD Healthy Joints What is Hip Dysplasia Dixie's Case X-Ray Evidence Product Benefits Success Story Product Specifications       |
Hip Dysplasia in dogs is characterized as an inherited condition, which may be aggravated by improper feeding practices. Hip Dysplasia in dogs is often described as a loose joint syndrome. When the hip joints are loose the ball of the femur rides on the edge of the socket rather than gliding smoothly in the socket. This results in pain and eventually to the formation of abnormal calcium deposits, bone spurs and/or arthritis. X-ray evidence in dogs with hip dysplasia who were supplemented with AMAIZE™ suggest that these dogs had smaller intra-articular spaces - in other words, tighter joints. When joints are tighter and more normally aligned they may operate with less pain, which may account for the improvement in mobility and reduction in pain in dogs supplemented with AMAIZE™.
