This Adorable Pup Won't Let Hip Dysplasia Stop Him From Having Fun At The Beach!

Chiku the yellow Labrador has hip dysplasia. This condition means that the ball and socket joint in one of his hips is not correctly formed and do not meet each other in the proper and “normal” way.

This causes the joint to grind and rub in an uncomfortable and painful way. But through this pain, Chiku doesn’t let his disease get in the way of his fun!

Today, Chiku is out having fun on the Puri Sea beach, located in Odisha, India. The pup clearly loves to run around and have fun, though of course, he is under strict vet orders not to do too much vigorous physical activity. Still, it doesn’t stop Chiku from jumping, walking, and swimming here and there as he plays with his family!

Although Chiku is in pain often, he doesn’t allow himself to be defined by it. He loves doing everything that a normal dog does – just in a different way, and with more breaks in between!
