See the thread in General: http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=115785 Diamond has severe hip displasia and is in urgent need of surgery to repair her hips so that she can live pain free and have functional use of her hips.

Presently Diamond is in extreme pain and has great difficulty in standing up from a laying position and Diamond cannot get in or out of a car or van or up or down steps without assistance due to her hip displasia. Diamonds right hip has severe displasia and her left hip has moderate hip displasia.

Diamond is in need of a surgery called Bilateral Femoral Head and Neck Excision which means that false hip joints need to be created so that Diamonds hips and head sockets can move easily to allow normal movements and relieve the extreme pain Diamond is currently experiencing.
