| post legs? I heard this term for the first time when I was browsing the Vets Corner forum last night; it describes Ocean's rear legs extactly. They are nearly as straight as her front legs, and BOY can she jump. I always thought it was odd that they were so straight, but it doesn't seem to slow her down... Are there any health concerns connected with this condition? Anyone else have a Rott with post legs; any problems?

| What you're describing sounds like severe underangulation in the rear. It is a structural problem, and often leads to torn cruciate ligaments due to poor conformation of the knee joint.
