Weak Front Legs on my puppy?

Postby JebsMom » Tue May 25, 2010 6:26 am

Our puppy Jeb is 10 weeks old. He is our first Boykin. I have noticed that his front legs tend to shake alot when he is standing or sitting still. I am wondering if this is normal, maybe his legs are catching up to his body weight, or if something might be wrong. Is this normal for a puppy?
Thanks,

Pups have wobbly legs for a while, also he could just be chilled easy, or they even do it if excited.

Our min-pin had this same issue until she was about two years old. She has extremely fine bones and was very small. She tended to get cold very easily and sometimes her body would tremble and she would almost fall down with her legs wobbling even when she was running around in the grass. I don't think its anything to worry about.
