Hello all,
I have a 13 mo. YLF she is in heat currently and has been for 12 days now. We have not done any intensive training because her focus is not there. The most we have done is steady drills, fun bumpers, and light obedience. Tonight we did some fun bumpers and I noticed that she was running funny off her front right leg. She is not favoring it like it hurts she is simply not stretching it out like she should be. My question to all of you more experience trainers is this... Should I be concerned about this? Do you think she could just be tight from not training? Could it be a joint issue? Could it be due to her being it heat? I am new to the dog training world and to the female dog world. This is the first dog I have let go through her first cycle. I am concerned about it because she did not have a problem with it before. I am going to continue to keep an eye on it, but was just looking for some insight. Have any of you had similar problems?
Thanks,
Brett
