there are many reasons for a limp in the front …… pano , ocd , elbow dysplasia, sprain/strain , a injured pad , broken nail , something stuck in his foot , are a few I've seen ….…. can you elicit a pain response anywhere ? personally , i'd stop him trotting until it cleared up ……...

Thanks again for great post.
She has been playing with our golden girl since first day.She was 50days old.
Only change was that steep hill they played last 10 days.I believe that caused our problem.
Ruger wouldn't stand on his back foot one time. He was about 11 months old. We took him to a vet and they didn't see anything. We concluded he probably stepped on a bug and got bit. We did notice slight swelling only after careful inspection. We habe a lot of bugs where we are and some ants that can really hurt. Who knows what bug it was but after about a week he was back to his normal self!

Hi again.
I really dont get this dog.
She was limping on fron left now on right.
There are no pain spots or smt btw fingers or foot.
Reasons can be our high bed which she likes to come up and jump .We stopped her to climb there after hip trouble but when she is fine my wife takes her and again limping problems.
Other possibility is when she goes to park without me i think they don't control her so she overplays....
Now we limit her moves again....

Hi again.
Sadly our limping problem is back because of that gsd on photo.
She is too active and Luna always keeps up.
My mistake was taking them three times a day for a while and after that hesitation to out foot and limping began.
I hope leash walks only will cure the problem.
