膝蓋脫臼+皮膚問題的巴哥犬Knuckles
Knuckles是一隻有態度的巴哥犬，大約7年前，她偶爾會開始跛行（尤其是在跳躍和和朋友玩耍後），後來被診斷出有髕骨異位(膝蓋脫臼) 的問題，並被建議手術是唯一的選擇。嗯，這不是我們真正想要採取的選擇，除非絕對必要，因為她之前曾在麻醉下有過敏反應，我們覺得風險相當高。我們讓她使用Rose-Hip Vital來支持她的關節健康，毫不誇張地說，幾個月後她的問題消失了，並且她的膝蓋再也沒有問題。除此之外，她的皮膚問題（經常發癢，過敏和紅點）減少了很多，她不再需要每個夏天注射類固醇，她的皮膚變得更加健康。從那時以來，她一直在使用Rose-Hip Vital，我永遠不會停止在她的晚餐中加一小勺，它一直是一種令人驚奇的補充劑，讓她保持愉快和健康。

"We started her on Rose-Hip Vital to support her joint health and no word of a lie, after a couple of months she stopped having problems, and has never had a problem with her knee again"
Knuckles is a pug with attitude, about 7 years ago she started to limp every now and then (especially after jumping and playing with her friends) and was subsequently diagnosed with a luxating patella and advised that surgery was her only option. Well, it wasn't an option we really wanted to take unless absolutely necessary as she had previously had a reaction when under anesthesia and we felt the risk was fairly high. We started her on Rose-Hip Vital to support her joint health and no word of a lie, after a couple of months she stopped having problems, and has never had a problem with her knee again. On top of that her skin issues (regularly itchy, allergies and hot spots) reduced so much that she no longer needed steriod injections every summer and her skin is so much happier. She has been on Rose-Hip Vital ever since, and I will never stop giving her that one little scoop with her dinner, it has been and continues to be an amazing supplement to keep her happy and healthy.
"Luxating Patella" 髕骨異位是一種關節問題，通常發生在狗狗身上，尤其是小型犬種。它又被稱為 "膝蓋脫臼"。
這個狀況指的是狗的膝蓋骨（即髕骨）在其正常的位置上移動不穩定，可能會造成跳躍、奔跑或行走時的不適。當狗的髕骨不穩定時，它可能會跳出正常的關節槽，這可能會導致疼痛、不自然的步態以及限制狗的活動能力。
膝蓋脫臼的嚴重程度可以因狗狗的個體差異而有所不同。有些狗可能只會偶爾感到不適，而另一些狗可能會在日常活動中經常受到困擾。
對於膝蓋脫臼的治療方法，可能會因狀況的嚴重程度而有所不同。較輕微的情況可能可以透過保守的方法來處理，如控制活動量、使用抗炎藥物等。較嚴重的情況可能需要外科手術來修復脫臼的膝蓋骨，以恢復正常的關節運動。
