I am concerned, but not overly concerned, with my Yorkie carrying his right hind leg when running. He does this now and then for a short period, but today when walking him earlier he did this more than usual. It was raining and I don't know if that had anything to do with it at all. The first time I noticed this issue was when we had a rain that froze back in December, I believe. He slide on the drive a short way got up and ran to check out stuff, potty, or something. I also have squeezed his foot, leg and thigh area when this happened when we were walking in the rain. He didn't pull away from me doing it, so maybe it isn't much of a concern. Has this ever happened to you all and your dogs~? Should I take him to the Vet~?
