The detection of hip dysplasia in dogs is a significant diagnostic challenge, which aims to eliminate disease from the population. The aim of this paper is to determine the presence of hip dysplasia in our patients and to emphasize the importance of diagnosis and prevention of the disease. During the research, a total of 14 dogs were examined. We used standards for evaluation of hip dysplasia according to the FCI guidelines. Evaluation is formed especially for each hip joint, and the final estimate of dysplasia is guided by that hip joint that give a poorer score. The results of the study show that: five (which is 36%) of 14 examined dogs, were dysplastic. The most presented parameter (13 dogs) was a insufficient coverage of femur head with acetabulum edge, while the least-represented parameter (2 dogs) was the presence of Morgan lines. Considering the existence of hip joint problems, a higher percentage of dogs should be covered by preventive examinations. Owners have a main role in the prevention of this disease, therefore proper education of the owners is a key in the elimination of the disease.
