I have just started noticing how my pup walks... and took slo-mo video of him to see properly as he walks and runs all the time cant catch him. I am in a small town and dont have a good VET here so pls see the below video and kindly advise what shud i do? t_video6129551160463327449.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Huskyfun Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 I am not a vet and do not have X-ray vision.... First off it appears that your pup has a very weak back end. I would back off on the walks. A normal healthy pup is 5 minutes per month at a time. So 15 minutes 3 times a day. Too much running and walking will cause joint issues. If that was my pup I would get X-rays of the back hips. Walk only long enough to go potty. Mentally tier it out by training. But stay away from sit and downs. No jumping or running. Start physical therapy to strength the back end. Swimming for very short periods would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfpup Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 I know you said you dont have a good vet locally - I would travel to where there is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shepsky5 Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 It looks like something going on with left rear leg? Did he pull it or injure it in any way? Or has he had his hips checked? I would also go to a vet soon...he's a handsome pup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amrit Posted October 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 Hello everyone, Tnx for your concern... i got him checked by a vet .... he has advised some hip support and joint support supplements.

wolfpup Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 For joint issues one of the best things you can give your dog is green lipped mussels. I dont know if you can get it where you are but the company is RIAFLEX . https://www.riaflex.co.uk/products/green-lipped-mussel/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Huskyfun Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Not sure about meds but I would definitely not push physical exercise. Let it have a chance to strengthen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
