How old is she? That doesn't sound normal to me. She doesn't move her butt either and only jumps like an inch? How does she move otherwise? Does she hop on and off furniture? Maybe someone else has experience with a dog like that. Maybe she is just a reserved personality? If she moves normally (running, getting on and off furniture) she is probably fine, if not I'd have neuro/ortho questions....
Maggie's butt moves so hard from side to side when her daddy comes home that she can barely walk straight. Then she sort of dances around. She jumps like she is going to jump on us (like other annoying dogs I know) but she doesn't actually put her feet on our legs. We didn't train the non-jumping but I'm glad she jumps without touching (no scratching). It is clear that she is deliouriously happy.
I hope someone else replies because it doesn't sound normal to me (unless like i said, she is just shy and reserved...) I don't mean to worry you. Maggie is the only dog I've had except one when I was a child, so I don't really KNOW anything. |
