LazyDaisy Feb 2020 8:08am, 15 Feb 2020 29,212 posts	0 LazyDaisy Hello Nala! Great photos! Lucky Nala to fetch up with you That's funny you say about a sassy walk - Flossie has that at a certain pace, she looks exactly how I imagine she'd sashay down a catwalk in a fashion show, then as she picks up pace a touch she starts trotting quite normally. None of our other Labs has ever walked like that and I worried that it presaged a hip problem but the vet says not.

Although her back legs are slightly longer than her front so I wondered if that was the cause. She tends to do it more when we walk down our road or when approaching people, almost as if she is saying "look at me" Does Flossie show any sign of stiffness or tenderness in her back legs. Perhaps she is just a very sassy lady xx
LazyDaisy Feb 2020 11:42am, 15 Feb 2020 29,217 posts	0 LazyDaisy Not really, Womble. She went through a phase of being transiently limpy on a back leg but once we realised that was due to excessive ball-chasing we cut back on that and she's not had a problem since. In fact she seems to prefer chasing sticks anyway. (yes, I know that's potentially dangerous) which don't go as far or as fast as a ball from a flinger.

Her lil soft toy has been gathering dust since we got her. Thanks D2. Indi is lovely, she looks like she is just about to spring into action
