obi2 239 Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 My lurcher bitch dislocated her elbow at the weekend when turning. We got her to a vet and he managed to pop it back in fairly easy. has anyone had this with there dog before and did it turn in to a reoccurring thing? She's about 20 month old. Quote Link to post
socks 32,253 Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Never had a dog pop an elbow but in my experience once a dog has popped a joint it generally becomes an ongoing problem ... there will have been a weakness there in the first place for it to dislocate ........ 1 Quote Link to post
