Animal Smiley 019 Skipping Yorkie

Hi everyone

I was wondering if many of you have a Yorkie that skips? Meaning when they trot/run they keep one of their back legs up.

I spoke with my friend about it before (she's a vet). She said it usually happens in small dogs and has to do with their knee joint. I can't remember what she said exactly but it's something like the place where the kneecap is is too shallow. She also said it's not normally uncomfortable.

Lu started doing it when she was about 10-months and she's doing it more often now. I was just wondering if anyone else has a pup who likes to skip
