So as a follow up to 'Should I bother' I'm sending this video to my breeder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJbinNmMka8
I know Sophie is on a wood floor, but she does this in the grass as well.
Right after finding out Syrus has elbow dysplasia, Sophie - sister - LITTER MATE >:( >:( has it in both her front legs and a torn ACL in her back leg which because of her age, 14months, Vet thinks is a result of mis-aligned rear elbow putting too much strain on ACL :'( :'( :'(
Hereditary!!!!
At least we caught early and can manage the ED for many years - EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES!
Sorry to be so angry but just hate seeing my babies in pain.
Plus throw in a little personal pain in the eye. I had to have surgery on my left eye which resulted in my eye being sewn shut for up to 6 weeks. :'(
There, crying all done. For now....

DANG!!! I'm so sorry! Just know that we're here to support you--- or to make harassing phone calls to your breeder ;) I agree, October sucks.

Oh boy that looks painful. Poor girl.

My heart goes out to you and your babies.
I hope the meds work for them.

I'm sorry the month wasn't good. Hopefully the treatments will work and your little babies will be better. Here is to better times in the coming months. :)

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to look into every one of them. Now if I could only see what I'm reading...
;) Yep, pretty much what I look like for the next few weeks.

I am so sorry to hear what your pups are going through :'(
I agree about slippery floors though. It can be hard on their joints :( There are plenty of product on the market to market
You could try little boots..or not so little :)
Or product called "Show foot" or they have show wax that helps a lot from slipping ;)

;) Yep, pretty much what I look like for the next few weeks.
Awww....That's a tough time! I hope YOU feel better soon too!
