How can I tell if my dog has hip dyspepsia?

Answers:
You need to get hip xrays for that. Not even many vets can tell for sure without xrays so there's no way to explain to you how to check at home. Better to get it checked sooner than later.

you go to a vet for diagnosis

Ask your vet to do a prelim x-ray

Take the dog to your vet and tell him what you suspect and have him do an x-ray of the dogs hips. That should tell him and he will tell you. Ask to see the x-rays and have him go over them in detail with you.
Good luck

You mean hip dysplasia. Only a vet can tell you for sure. In severe cases that have progressed, the dog will be lame.

Dysplasia. You can only know for sure by x-ray. Vets can only guess and surmise by exam.

You first modify your question to read:

How can I tell if my dog has hip dysplasia.

Dyspepsia is indigestion.

A veterinarian can tell if a dog has hip dysplasia.
I hope your dog does not have it. Hurts them a lot but can be treated with medication.

When your dog reaches the age of two you can have your vet take an x-ray and sent it to OFA they will rate the dogs hips anywhere from excellent to poor and then you will know how good or bad the hips are.
You vet can diagnose displasia from an x-ray alone.

x-rays are the only true way.
