Prayers for Chopper....Update in first post as an edit

[WELOVESPUPPIES]

that what I am noticing in his legs is nothing serious. I have noticed the last couple of days that my little man's legs back legs have been seeming to flex foward at the stifle joint. I don't know if he has hyperextend the joints by standing on his hind legs begging to be picked up or if he is double jointed. He has an appointment today at 3:10. He is just to young to have something that will affect his ability to walk for the rest of his life, he is not quite 10 months and could live 15+ years. I ask all of you to please think of him today and when you do please say a little prayer for my little man.
Thanks

Hi PT iz me Chopper, I know mommy azkd you to fink of me today but pwees fink of her too, her getz very emotional when sumpin is wong wiff her babies. Luv Chopper

EDIT: If it is that he is double jointed it will most likely lead to hip and knee problems and arthritis as he ages.

EDIT 2: Well we are back from the vet. He said that he has hyperextension of his tarsus in both legs and that it was just normal for him just like for some people. There is NO reason to worry. Thank God and thank all of you for thinking and praying for my little man. He weighs 3.5 pounds!!

Prayers winging their way to one of our favourite little fellas and to his Mommy, of course

[Taz_Zoee]

Oh Chopper, I have tears in my eyes reading this thread. I will hope VERY hard that it is nothing to be worried about and that you will be the happy doggie that you are for MANY years to come. After all, what would I do without your stories and cute pictures??

[Freedom]

I got so worried when I saw this title. Prayers on the way from RI; please let us know what the white coats say!

[Sevaede]

Oh noes!! Not Chopper! :( Lots of fantastic thoughts your way! We hope it's nothing serious! :( Spanky sends Chi Chi kisses!

[Kfamr]

Oh no, not our little Chopper! :( He has been a topic of discussion during many of our PT get togethers this month, so he's certainly got a lot of people wrapped around his little paw.


I know I'll keep you and him in my thoughts, Traci, you let me know if there's anything I can do. :)

[RobiLee]

Lots of prayers going out for one of my favorite little guys. We love ya, Chopper!

[jennielynn1970]

Will definitely keep you and Chopper in my thoughts and prayers. Can't have anything wrong with that sweet little guy!!

[WELOVESPUPPIES]

Thank you everyone. I will definitely keep you all posted on what the white coats have to say, hopefully it will be good news and maybe he just hyperextended the joints and can be splinted or something to allow them to heal. My little man sends his puppy luvin's right back to all of you.

[Sparklecoon]

Our thoughts are with him.

[Pam]

I can't even bear to think that something would be wrong with *Pet Talk's Littlest Sweetheart.* Prayers going up for Chopper and you. Chopper knows his mommy so well and realizes that she needs them too.

[cassiesmom]

Phew! My heart stopped when I saw the title of this thread! Hug, hug, hug, hug, hug!

[Alysser]

I am sorry I just saw this thread, but I am glad the problem is nothing serious. Arthritis is painfully hard to watch your dog develop, it is really a sad thing to watch for any dog owner.

[WELOVESPUPPIES]

Thanks everyone for all the prayers. I am so glad it was not something serious that was going to affect him for life. The vet said it is just how he is, just like some people. Yep, a whole whopping 3.5 pounds. I think the scale was broke when we left. :D
