thanks!

if a puppy is born with horrible LPs you will notice it as they get a little older. the knees are sticking out and the back is hunched or rounded. if your going to pick a puppy out of a litter of 4 month old yorkies your probably not going to see or feel it unless its really bad. Most times its luck of the draw AND it is not genetic. sometimes usually happens to them to cause the LP like overactivity, running down the stairs, jumping too much, etc...
