That's what I'd thought too. Perhaps like a siaticia pain. It was her back leg, she was biting, yesterday. Yet she does have front leg problems.
When running around sometimes, she suddenly stops, stiffens one of the front legs, holding it straight out in front of her. staring at it and obviously in pain. It lasts a few seconds. Happens to either front leg. Vets disagree with the reasons, but say nothing can be done. So nerve pain seems to be a problem for her. Last vet said it was due to the fact her dew claws had been removed badly by the breeders friend. This last vet disagrees.
