I have a question about puppies and toeing out (easty/westy front). If a puppy is slightly toeing out at 12 weeks can that correct itself when the puppy gets older? I have heard the term about 'when the chest drops' that sometimes this will correct a front that is just a little off. What are you thoughts on this and at what age does the chest drop?
I'm not a Yorkie breeder, but slight toeing out at 12 wks old, can be corrected. Maybe through chest drop, or in many other cases through physcial muscle conditioning.
