Yorkie Talker | Hello, Im new :) Hello, my name is Somer, and i am the new proud mommy of a little guy named Jasper, as you've probably guessed. I love him so much, hes just the cutest around (in my eyes) and hes my dream dog. I have a few questions, one im very conserned about is a thin with his legs...idk what it is, but he will be walking just fine, then start limping around, like his leg falls asleep randomly. It concerns me, I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem! Or if anyone knows what it could be. |

| Hi! I'm a relatively new Yorkie Momma, so I don't know about the leg thing. But, I did want to say, "Welcome to YT!" |

| Welcome to YT!! Can't wait to see pictures of Jasper. Have you had the vet check his legs & knees? I would want to rule out luxating patella

| Hi welcome to YT I'm sure, as others have suggested, a trip to the vet will put your mind at rest about Jasper's leg. I can't wait to see some pics of your baby, I'm sure he's adorable xxx xxx

| Welcome to Yorkie Talk. You'll make many friends here. I would agree with some of the other posts and take him to see your vet. You can't be too careful. If this is a problem you would want to catch it earlier than later.
