Got a dog who runs awkwardly have been investigating , including retained testicles removed etc etc etc

Someone recently pointed out he doesnt seem to split his front legs as he gallops ..he wont jump up on a fence or even a low car gate even though you can see he wants to jump in .

Hes a bit hunch backed ...but hes been checked over numerous times by different checkers .

Close to giving up with him ...this post a bit of a last ditch attempt come up with something ...anyone have any clues ?

He lives in Wagga, I believe, Nathan.
He sent a bitch down to us to see if my hubby could bring her into season, which he did. I don't think he will get it fixed up there, going on what he told me about people checking the bitch he sent down. She had a very bad back, which wasn't being fixed or found up there. I have an idea what the problem is, but Wagga is a long way away.

Good you can help him out Carole , right Poeple are hard to find , becoming very rare !

Im not a vet or checker , but sounds like a few problems

Sounds undernourished and sore through saddle down to back and groin

Try amino calcium plus , its triple the dose of ingredients to any other calcium powder

,it swabs also ! then change to results plus blue label by sprinters gold

Laser his saddle through back and groin morning and night might see a change Im guessing

Needs over looking to the standards of John Newell or Peter yore would be my best advice and bloods done also

I know someone up at Grafton Ill see what I can do and arrange , no promises but !
Good luck cheers Carole

Could be a myriad of answers. Some greyhounds suffer Spondylitis, cant be fixed , only alleviated.
