on sunday. we are worried about his front legs, he had a slight limp for 4 days a few weeks back and with rest it went, we continued rest for another week before doing a small walk last weekend and he limped for a few steps again.
We are concerned he may have either an elbow problem or and we hope he doesnt Newfoundland forelimb abnomoly, he has short front legs that seem to bow out and low on his pasterns front feet.
He is on a low protein food, not overwalked at all, just garden play in the week and a walk on grass at the weekends where he can paddle in a stream and we just spend time there letting him see other dogs and play without walking more than a few hundred metres.
These are some photos of him taken yesterday.. he is our first newf so hard to know what is normal and what isnt, different views from different people make it confusing, so think we're heading for xrays.
soo worried about my little man.
