Our 5 1/2 month old yorkie has started to do a little hop on his back leg when we go for walks. I don't notice it when he is running or playing. We also have quite a few stairs, and he seems to have no trouble with them. So if it is a mild case of this, would it be possible for me to only notice it when he walks, or would I also see it when he is running around? thanks for any input, I really hope this is not what is wrong with his leg.
