is this hip dysplasia

I've been concerned about this hip wiggle for a while but keep being told it's normal for bulldogs to sway a little, what do you guys think. I'm worried it looks like hip dysplasia ?

I'm no expert but that does look normal. Is he in any pain? Have you asked your vet for an opinion?

All looked normal to me up until the very last second or two when it seemed more to one side, but that could have been because he turned and looked that way. Might be worth mentioning to the vet at the next visit if it's causing no pain now

Looks normal to me also, worth getting vet to have a look. My Brothers Beagle who is 9 months old has just been diagnosed with hip dysplasia. But she hops on the back leg thats how they noticed
