My 1 1/2 yr old english mastiff was neutured in late feb and since then has trembled in his back legs when hit sits, raises his head lower than his hind, squats, and gets up/down from the bed/car. he is now (since early july) putting more weight on his left side than right (so much that he tilts when he stands), getting up/down with most weight on his left, and putting his right leg to the side to squat rather than under him. I appreciate your help. Thanks- kate

Has he been to the vet? This definitely seems like it needs a vet visit, and maybe a different vet for a second opinion if the first didn't find anything.

The breed is prone to hip dysplasia. If you haven't already, you might want to have some Xrays taken. Also the breed is prone to elbow dysplasia.
