Dog hopping off right leg

Dog is hopping occasionally off her right back leg on walks. It is only occasionally and she doesn't seem sore anywhere. Runs okay and isn't in any pain. Thinking maybe a luxating patella but not common with large breeds. Taking her to VET but any thoughts would be great?

Check closely for something is in her pad or if it is a sore quick on toe

Hi Tony,
Did you end up finding any solution to your issue, we also have a dog with a hop or a skip similar to what you explained with yours.
