Since we got her - we didn't get her as a puppy she was nearly 1 year old. The phone # for her breeder isn't on her papers, only an address, so I can't really call and ask. She doesn't do the limp like Loki. She walks with her knees locked - she just doesn't bend them. Try locking your knees and then walking and you'll see what I mean. BUT, she does stairs and runs and leaps and bounces off of everything. She dances on her back legs. It's so wierd. The vet watched her walk and thought it was odd, but said it's not time to do surgery yet. I really like my vet and she does know little dogs pretty well, I mean she diagnosed Loki's and I had no idea what an LP was when I got him and she explained it to me. I don't know. I put a call into her to get a referral for a specialist and I'll just get her checked.
