Question for all you experienced bull doggers

[fazzazz1k]

We just got our female AB penn hips scores today. left .34 right .31

Vet says they are real good scores which we are very excited about, however; we had her xrayed in the first place because she has an exagerrated woble when she walks. She looks like she is shaking her butt side to side and looks a little bow legged. She is 95lbs and very athletic, never has trouble laying down or getting up, does not bunny hop up stairs, weight pulls, jogs with me and never does she lay down or show any signs of hip dysplayia with the exception of her walk. She only waddles when walking not while trotting. Our vet says that's the way she walks "With a waddle" but I am very confused because I have seen dogs walk like that before but had some type of hip issues.

Can it be possible that this is the way she really walks?

if the vet says her hips are fine than it just might be the way she walks. Kinda like people I might walk a little diff than you but we both might fine and healthy

Right now she is fine, but probably won't win any conformation shows. If the waddle is real bad, it could lead to problems as she gets older. It sounds like it's just the way she walks if she can jog with you and is active. I wouldn't worry about it since her xrays came out good.

How old is she?...and is she a heavy 95lbs or an in good shape 95lbs?
The bow-legged part can have alot to do with it....post pics of her so we can view her structure, it might help to tell you more.

Depends on the dog
Bigger Johnson and J type females move their butt in a rolling gate

Swings from side to side like a $5 dollar hooker, but only when she walks, when she light the fire it is straight on.

Rock is right it does depend on the individual bulldog i have seen ofa good and ofa excellent hips taken out of a breeding program because of there movement and some because of other issues you have to look at the overall bulldog if you are close to a reputable breeder take her by and let them evaluate her for you most of them know more about this breed than most vets
