For club feet, she can get corrective shoes> I don't know anything about the hip dysplasia in humans, but our dog had to have surgery to correct it. What did your doctor say they could do?

Corrective shoes, and I didn't have hip displaysia but my hip was dislocating it's self. They had to put a 2 1/2 inch screw in it to fix it. Everything will work out flowers

I believe for the hip dysplasia that they use a special brace or maybe a cast and she will have to wear this for a while. For the club feet, the special shoes will work and I'm not sure if surgery may be in her future or not. Some of the best people to ask would be your OB or Pediatric nurses. I'm sure they would answer your questions if you called your local hospital.

I was born with club feet, have no worries about this. They can fix it, well that's if it's a normal case. For me it started with braces on the legs, then casts. My left foot corrected itself but my right foot needed a operation to fix it. As for the hip dysplasia, I wouldn't have a clue, but to say hang in there. flowerforyou
