My dog is a four year old small terrier mix and has developed a weakness in one of her hind legs, particularly after resting.  She seems to be able to "walk it off" after a few steps.  It doesn't seem to hurt her.  Should  I worry?  Is there anything I should do?  Thank you.

My 7 year old Terrier Mix who is still active as a puppy, sprained his leg last year and now has the same problem as your puppy does. After laying for a while it takes him a little time to get going. I give him Glucosomine everyday and it seems to help. I don't think you have anything to worry about but that's my opinion.
