Becca has a rather normal walk, relaxed, smooth.
Sneakers hind legs seem rather stiff, ie: he doesn't pick his paws up very high, and seems to get the distance by rolling his hips back and forth. It looks sorta looks like a "cocky" butt twist (sorta arrogant).

Both my guys can trot almost as fast as I can run. They can really pick um up and put um down. And their bodies seem fixed on a horizontal plane, like they were on rails, just gliding along.

Sneakers is faster (he's bigger) than Becca when Running, but, both are very fast runners. I think this is a "practice" thing, since I take them hunting almost daily, and they have to really move to catch anything.

One other area of movement is when they "stalk" prey. Both have a very cat like stalk, crouched, smooth, bodies fixed as they creep forward. This activity is what caused me to select "Sneakers" name.
