| Can you tell if a yorkie has bad knees by the way they walk? I was just wondering if you could tell by the way they walk.. or if there are characteristics to look for? |

| Both of mine have luxatting patellas, SImon in both legs and Hallie in one! Simon will be 2 next month and I have only seen his leg bother him once and Hallie never. I was told by my vet that it will cause arthritis and pain later in their lives but for now they are ok! They walk normally and I'm always checking. |
