Sounds like he could have a luxating patella. I would have a vet look at him to rule out any other injuries, such as a sprain .

Our little guy has two luxating patellas on both of his back knees. Sometimes if he overdoes it, I will catching him skipping or picking one of his back legs up.

Good luck and I hope you find a resolution to your problem soon.

The thing is I have been on holiday first time I have left my little fellow, and have come back to him holding is back right leg up when he is running not all the time, and he puts it down and walks fine, he is in no pain and I have checked for grit or a stone but nothing, he doesnt whelp of anything when I lift it and check, and he seems fine, but like I say every know and then he runs with it up, usually when he has cocked it up for a wee!! I dont know if I will get any answers as I dont know where to go to find them!!!
