Your 10 year old cocker spaniel pops when she walks why?

Answer

I have a Cockapoo with the same problem. I took my little guy into the vets and it's the 'knee joint' which pops out of the socket (it's common in cocker breeds.) Sometimes the vet may wait a little if the dog is younger to see if it will pop back in and stay there, but if it doesn't it's time for surgery. My guy Booker T is 2 years old and the popping is getting less, but I'm having him x-rayed to see what is going on and if need be I'm getting Pet Medical and having the operation done.

When you first see the vet ask them if they would please not put down on the dog's file what you came in for. This way there is no record so if your dog needs surgery on one or both legs you can get Pet Medical Coverage (will have to wait approximately 3 months for it to kick in) and will help a great deal with the cost of surgery. They are sure worth it. If Booker T doesn't stop popping permanently soon then I'm going through with the surgery.
