sandymere 8,263 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 If you mean she stretches in the morning then that’s pretty normal but if you mean she has a problem mobilising that’s a different matter. Perhaps a little more info will help people to make an informed answer and you will get more replies. Regards s Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sandymere 8,263 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 If she always limps on the same leg then check the leg and supporting area over as there is likely an injury. If there is someone you know that has some experience get them to check her for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,174 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Greyhound vet or back man: maybe muscle damage which stiffens up after resting, could be any number of things, but a young dog shouldn't be stiff after resting like that. Get her looked at by someone who knows what they are doing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
