Default Limpish walk. Please help

So i have a 3 year old yorkie s**tzu mix. His name is raul. I just love this little guy. But anyhow, i recently noticed that his back legs look like they have a "pop" to them, but only when he is walking slowly. When he is running jumping or trotting normally i cant notice it. Its got me kinda worried. He is in zero pain and when i manually bend his hind legs there is no pop or discomfort. Im not sure if its always been there and im just noticing it. I originally thought it was his toe nails but after a trim its still there. I took him to the vet and they chalked it up to acute pateller luxation. She said its very very minor. But again i dont think that correct since its consistent only on slow walking. Also the person i bought him from said he had a leg injury when he was a pup due to his leg getting caut under a door ;( poor little guy. Any advice. Again he is acting as normal as he ever did. Maybe his injured leg never healed properly? I guess im just confused to y it only happenes when he walks slowly
