Medical Conditions & Diseases / Arthritis at 2 yrs?

Virgil has been been very stiff and has had trouble getting up for the last few months. I thought it was his hips. However I got him x-rayed and it turned out to be arthritis in his knees and a spot on his spine. The vet thinks it is from an old injury, but he has never been hurt before. She says it could have been a small barely noticible incident. He is so young. I was wondering if this is common and how upset I should be. Does that make sense. The Dr. kinda sounded like Virgil would have been better off having hip dysplasia. Does Anyone have experience with arthritis at this age?
