Puppy probs !!   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2006 of 2032 |
Hi can any one advice me. Diesel is a 7 month old Dobi who was bought
from a reputable breeder. He has had short bouts of lameness in
different legs lasting from one day to a week. He sometimes forgets he
is lame when he thinks nobody is looking but when a treat is on offer
he can become crippled.He never wimpers or expresses any pain. He has
been checked by the vet who cant really explain with out doing really
expensive tests. (we are insured) but as there is no pain and hes been
manipulated believe me I wonder does anybody know if this is a "Dobi
thing" or are we looking at a puppy that knows how to work his owners.
I would be grateful all advice
Regards
Adele
