    Hello there,
    I’m new to the forum. I Lost my yellow last Oct and recently got another one. She’s an English Fox Red and her name is Rosie. She was born 1/9/21 so she is almost 5 mos. I’m concerned with her constant sitting like a frog and also laying like Superman. My vet said this is normal for her age and from his exam her hips are good. Her parents both have good hips. Our house is all hardwood so her legs slip out easily. I’m concerned about early signs of Hip Dysplasia. I’m not planning on spaying her until next year and at that time I’d request X-rays. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

    Congratulations on your new puppy!
    Our Labs both sit this way and it hasn't led to any joint problems
