CDDY / CDPA / IVDD -
* Chondrodystrophy is the abnormal development of cartilage. It causes the long bones of the body to grow at an abnormal rate and results in shortened legs. ... A chondrodystrophic dog can be a purebred or a mixed breed that inherited the short leg appearance.
(CDDY) refers to abnormal cartilage growth and bone development. Many dog breeds like Dachshunds, Bulldogs, Corgis, Pugs, French Bulldogs, Bassett Hounds, Pekinese's, Lhasa Apsos, Shih Tzus, Beagles, etc. are defined as having shorter than normal limbs.
- Intervertebral disk disease (IVDD) may be described by your vet as a ruptured, slipped, bulging or herniated disk in your dog's back or neck. While this condition can happen in any breed of dog, it is most commonly seen in dachshunds, Pekingese, shih tzus, basset hounds and beagles.
