1 leg is straight, the other has like a bend in it off to the right, like where a humans knee would be...
and when he is sitting or standing and has the other straightened out, the one that is odd shaped kind of shakes, or shivers.
Anyone know what this is...I KNOW I NEED TO SEE A VET, and I will, but Im a foster mom to him and just got him today. And wondered if anyones pup/dog has this and knows what it is..
Thanks

It sounds like his muscle in the leg is weak, that might be do from just injuring it, or maybe a sticker or spur or something sharp could be stuck in it that you cant see. My dog had a sliver on his front paw that I couldnt see, and it was causing him to act kinda like that. . . good luck I hope the puppy feels better :)

Sounds like he may have been hit by a car. The stiff leg may have a break or dislocation that hasn't healed right. Are we talking front or rear legs? The one that shakes may be doing most of the supporting, and may just be strained from over use. Good luck!

It sounds like his knee may be dislocated or the kneecap is out of place, especially if it is the back leg. The shaking is probably from pain.

i think yr pup has a problem with the leg. should go and see the vet as soon as possible. when yr there- ask yr vet if there's any other problems u should know about. I always make sure my pup is healthy. Oh and u said, u just got yr pup. Did u pay for her? sign contract? if there's any prob, then u can exchange her for healthier one or get refund. it's the law man~

Contact the rescue league and ask if he had any problems when he was found.
