My 6 month old Golden Retriever has been diagnosed with "Severe bilateral hip dysplasia with subluxation and secondary arthritis with possible panosteitis." 

 While she seems to be getting around and dealing with her dysplasia, she will hold up her leg and not use it do to pain levels.  I have her on Glucosamine & Chondroitin, but it doesn't seem be helping her pain levels.  My vet has had her on Rimadyl and previcox which seems to work, but is not good long term. 

Do you have any alternative suggestions?

I'm sorry about your Golden.  Do you have access to water?  We found that regular swimming was the best possible remedy for our Golden, combined with the Rimadyl.  I know a lot of people have a reluctance to keep their dogs on this drug long term, but we've had great luck with it.  We kept our Golden on it for  5 years, with increased dosages as the pain got worse.  Combined with lots of swimming, it really kept her going...good luck, I know how hard it is to see them in pain.
