    Here are some pics of my pups feet. They don't look right to me but maybe they are I don't know. I'm carrieing her to the vet today. But I would just like to see what some people thought about her feet.

    they look like she hasn't laid down ever, like she was standing up forever and her feet are bent, her ankles in the back look really stubby like they have had too much pressure on them. i hope everything works out for you, you seriously should call the cops on this guy, let him pay fines out the a$$ for animal cruelty, good luck with the pup, she is really cute

    I got a pup like that once, but once I started feeding her a good quality food they straightened right up and she was fine.

    I believe it's something to do with the calcium a pup recieves that causes the front ankles(?) to bend like that. A good nutritious feed and some light exercise should do wonders for your pup...By light exercise I mean get her walking around the house or around the yard a little bit...don't overdo it.

    Could be from not getting the right vitamins/minerals... Her feet definetly don't look right, I noticed them right off when you posted the pictures on the other thread.. How old is she?

    I would say that is definitely from poor nutrition and lack of exercise. Being in that crate as long as she was, and it being filthy, she probably didn't do much laying down.

    I have seen a case on a rescue site with a puppy how's legs were in horrible shape, worse than your pups... and they turned it around with the right feed. Good advise Crash!

    i got a pup like that recently, my cappy pup was bent exactly like that in the front and extremely bowlegged in the back, i found out that he was kept in a crate for the first few months of his life and not allowed much exercise.....after he was here for a week and allowed to run around he straitened right up. good luck at the vet, and i bet with the right food and exercise she will be ok.

    as many people have already stated, it's probably due to inadequate nutrition (or lack of nutrition all together :mad: ). just get your pup started right away on a quality puppy food (which I know you already have ;) ) & give it some time. it can take a few weeks for the bones, tendons, & ligaments to correct themselves, but like crash stated, proper diet & some very light exercise (nice lil stroll just in the yard) will help. but if exercise is overdone, the condition will just be aggravated. take care of your pup & give her a kiss from me. lemme know what the vet says. take care!

    If your still wondering about a decent puppy food I recommend Diamond Puppy. Some people dont like diamond but it works very well in everything Ive fed it to.

    Good luck with your pup hope he's alright.I would definitely look into pressing charges on a scum like that.No dog should be treated like that.
