hi i was wondering if anybody had any advice...My two year old staff keeps limping on her back right leg but only when i take her out, she is fine in the house. I have checked all her paws and they all seem fine and she is walking ok in the house and doesn't complain when i mess with her paw.

Any body else had this problem? i would be grateful of any help or suggestions

She could have strained a muscle. Sometimes they hurt themselves a bit and need a few days of rest or very light activity and are fine after that

Has it only just started to happen? If so I would keep her off it totally for a few days, just out for toilets, if it persists pop to the vets, they will most likely to tell you to do the same thing and give you some anti-inflams.

I hope you get it sorted, I am having probs with mine still and it has been going on a few weeks now Xx

Could be stiff, or crampy cause of the weather ?

Take it easy with her, if no improvement then vets x
