Things to keep an eye on
Gastric Dilatation-Volvulus (Bloat)
highLarge, deep-chested breeds can be prone to sudden stomach swelling, which requires immediate professional veterinary attention. It is important to be aware of the signs of abdominal distress.
Feed smaller, frequent meals rather than one large meal to help support healthy digestion.
Elbow Dysplasia
moderateThis is a developmental condition where the elbow joint does not fit together perfectly, potentially leading to inflammation or stiffness. Early detection helps in managing comfort levels.
Ensure your puppy engages in controlled, low-impact exercise while their bones are still developing.
Hip Dysplasia
moderateThis condition involves an abnormal formation of the hip socket, which can cause discomfort or mobility issues over time. It is a common consideration for many large-breed dogs.
Maintain a healthy weight to reduce unnecessary stress on your dog's joints.
