Poorly chook
« on: August 26, 2009, 17:41 »
Hi, hope someone can help. My 2-3 yr old Barnvelder has suddenly started to walk badly, sitting back on her `knee ` joints, and her feet seem curled up not flat... any ideas?  thanks

Any chance you could post a photo so we could see it better?
Staffies are softer than you think.

If her toes are curled up that indicates a neurological problem, either a disease  like Mareks, prognosis not good or maybe a injury of some sort to her back perhaps?? check both her legs for swelling or heat.
