: Coxofemoral dysplasia is characterized by incongruence of the head of the femur when articulating with the acetabulum, leading to laxity and joint instability. This study aims to report the case of a canine diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia. After initial care, a radiographic examination was performed, which revealed characteristic changes of the hip, and the initial surgical intervention was performed using the colocephalectomy technique in the left limb, which was more affected by radiographs. The etiologic cause was not determined, but it is believed that being a large animal and fast growing, there was disparity of the adjacent musculature. The radiographic examination proved to be effective, as well as the Ortolani test, as diagnostic means. Surgical treatment allowed for pain relief and reasonable joint function, but long-term complications can not be ruled out.
