PennHIP Screening at Westside Family Pet Clinic
At Westside Family Pet Clinic, we’re committed to offering advanced diagnostic tools to support your pet’s lifelong health. That’s why we’re proud to provide PennHIP-certified evaluations—a proven, research-based method for assessing a dog’s risk of developing hip dysplasia.
What is PennHIP?
PennHIP (developed by Antech Imaging Services) is a specialized radiographic technique that measures hip joint laxity with much greater accuracy than traditional methods. It can identify dogs at risk for hip dysplasia as early as 16 weeks of age, allowing for earlier intervention, improved pain management, and more informed breeding decisions.
