| My yorkies spine Recently I noticed that there is a spot on Tinker's spine that dips down. I know it hasn't always been there, because I always scratch her down her spine, but one day I noticed the dip and I am a little worried. It doesn't seem to bother her too much, but I am still worried. Does anyone know what it might be? My mom said if it doesn't bother her than it must be nothing, but when it comes to the spine I don't think you could be too careful. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks. |

| baby's back your baby could have a roached back. But you said that the spine curves downward? I think that a roached back curves upward. Don't quote me on this, but from what I have heard, if it is a roached back it is genetic (like most of the flaws). Take her to the vet to find out. I am not sure if there is much that can be done for it. Why don't you do a google search on the roached backs. Like I said- not sure if they curve up or down. I think it is more of a hump.
