I haven't seen any limping. But check out the dogwalk video. Is she just worried about hurting her foot or is she injured. I also worked her on some jumping after this dogwalk video. Ill have to post it later. You don't see any limping with the jumping stuff. I really am in a dilemma on what to do. When I watch the video I see injury. My husband disagrees. He thinks she is just worried about hitting her foot. And opinions???

Miley is definitely holding the foot up. Maybe the jumping doesn't bother her, because her weight is shifted differently? Jumping is a completely different movement.
However, maybe the foot lift is a learned behavior since it was injured before.
I am no help! I say, show this video to your vet. It is a really good video.
humm, sorry that does look weird I wonder what that is about? Wonder if there is a certain group of muscles she is using on the dog walk she doesnt use in jumping....see we are having so many problems with Breeze, she is totally sound as long as we stay off the dog walk, do you see it on the Aframe?
Can you show this to the PT? They may be able to advise you further...I thought I was C-R-A-Z-Y when I started noticing Heidi limping. Iwas (and a bit of me still is) convinced it's her HIND leg/knee versus her shoulder; her shoulder is just a by product of her real issue. But I was never able to catch it on video. Yours is GREAT though...very clear and at a perfect view. I hope, if anything, this makes you feel like your not imagining things! I hope you get some answers soon...

Hi Diana, Miley does look weird lifting her foot up walking the down plank. If her jumping is ok, why not trying to take the DW down and put it on the groud then run it. Just to see if this is her bahaviour/pattern or an injury? Also, can you try to find somewhere to go and do the DW, maybe she is different at different contact at different venue. Also, you can try this but you may not like it. Instead of 2o/2o, run the DW just to see if she still holding her foot up.
Oh, shoot. Did she jam her toe maybe on the descent. Whisper is sidelined for an knee injury too. It seems minor but no agility for at least two weeks. Neither of us are happy.
Definitely get her checked by the PT.
That's great video! Certainly the rehab vet will be able to watch it and make an assessment about what is going on! Good luck!
Do you have access to a dog walk without slats? i.e. rubber contacts? I would want to see here run on one. Maybe it is related to the slats on the down-side. It is def. there. Puzzling.
