its been a while since ive been here.

last week i took my dog to the canal to play in the water and everything was fine. the next day he had a hard time walking. it was like his back legs were crippled. this has happened before, but when i took him to the vet it was like nothing was wrong.

Was he just really stiff and limping? That sounds alot like my dog Chico (hip dysplasia). When I would take him to the vet, they would feel around and say he looks pretty good. YOu have to do x-rays in order to get a real diagnosis on that one. If you do a search on here, you will find a lot of info about hip dysplasia. It's pretty common with these guys. How old is your dog?
