Lameness means the dog has a lame leg either from birth or has injured it. It's best to have a vet look at it because if it is a problem for the dog in many cases it can be fixed. I have a little 15 lb. male Cockapoo that has a slightly twisted hind right leg and in both knee joints there is a pop. The vet has said to leave it for not, but my husband and I are stashing some money aside to have surgery done in another year.
