I thought you meant a two-legged dog.
I knew a guy when I was a kid that had a dog with one front leg and one rear leg, on opposite sides, missing.
We called him see-saw.
This is an animal vanity trend that can hurt dogs worse than dangerous dyes for "Panda" dogs. Especially with breeds who have long backs this is
begging for vertebral damage. Let's keep it limited to dogs like Faith(recently passed away), who had no front legs but had to utilize their back
legs to walk.
edit on 15-5-2015 by dreamingawake because: (no reason given)
owners that do stupid things like that to pets need a hard kick in the glands!
unbelievably stupid vain and pathetic make my blood boil
morons should be banned from owning pets ever
and take a mental health screening to be allowed to breed too ugh.
Exactly, the cup in their hip isn't in the right place for it, it will probably wear out the hips and they will have to teach it to walk on it's
front legs, till those blow out from the wrong angle.
I didn't think about the spine pressure. Excellent
Perhaps if you had a dog this flexible? Sometimes he actually crosses the back legs and he can travel long distances by crawling when I've told him
to lay down and stay ... anyhow I'm kidding... long term it would do damage.
Cool looking pup you got there.
My dog does the same thing. Here he is bringing out his pillow so his dainty elbows don't get sore.
He cant decide if he's a dog or a frog.
i wonder if breeders could born out a new species with the ability to remain on two legs, this or any current species will surely get hip damage etc,
but after some generations it might adapt to it, imagine, a future with an entire (and presumably popular) species of dog that is always bipedal.
