Hi Everyone!

Dan was walking Kingston with me last night so I could see his action from behind. (He is still wobbly but much less now that he has some strength and weight back on him.)

Anyway his rear-driverside leg actually twists in the hip socket as he walks. It goes down fairly straight but then twists as he pushes off. He does bunny hop upstairs and while running.

Does that sound like hip Dysplasia? He has a little growth inside his eyelid so we are going to go in for that too but I was curious before we go in.
