by: Mary

I am wondering if it is a slipped disc - something similar happened to my Jack and that is what it was. Or it could be a pinched nerve. Or hip dysplasia or an ACL injury. If he is not in any pain then I would think you should try bed rest for a few days (very very very limited activity, crating might be a good idea to stop activity). If things don't get better then a trip to the vet would be good to get a more definitive answer. Good luck, hope everything is ok!
