like birdgirl says ,
could be numerous thingz . very high strung energetic dogs have probs. w/ a.c.l's and knees also . the top of a dogs tibula is on a 65deg. angle so the femur kinda slides down the front of the tibula stressing the hell out of the a.c ligiments . humans are about 15 deg. so it's easier for our tibula to carry our body weight . the lil brown -n- white pit in my avatar had to have a t.p.l.o this year cause of it . tibular plane leveling ostemy . 4 mos. in a cage doggy p/t . and we now give her glocosamine everyday . good as new now but a cpl. thousand $ later . lol . when you go get the dog it's shots ask the vet to check it out .
good luck

xcrispi Reviewed by xcrispi on . My dog is limping There is something wrong with my dog's back right leg. She's not walking properly and clearly has trouble standing on two legs and going up and down the stairs. She's about 2 1/2 years old and weighs aroung 50 lbs. She doesn't seem to be in pain or in suffering and she's still walking. I was wondering if this is something I should worry about or if it happens to dogs from time to time. I don't have a lot of money and I have to get her shots done so I'm really worried that I'm facing another Rating: 5
