Weak back legs
by dragontear Fri Feb 08 2013, 19:47
Hello,
I would like to ask, what is the normal amount of time for a puppy to get his back legs stronger ? I have a puppy that is 9 weaks old and still walks kinda funny on his back legs and they seem weaker then the front ones, and is a bit wobbly. The breeder that i bought the puppy from said this can take since 9 weeks to even 5 moths till they get stronger, is that true ? It's my first staffie so you know, I worry about everything and want to double check.
regards

Not really sure what you mean, been a long time since I had a pup.
Maybe you could come and say hi

It doesn't sound normal to me but without seeing it's hard to say ... Will you be going for injections soon , you could ask the vet then ?

the back legs seem weaker than the rear ones !!! 
how many legs as your dog got?
on a serious note, never heard anything about the back legs taking longer to develop than the front legs ???
