This week, Jess and Scott discuss dogs coming up lame. The pit in your stomach that you get when you see your dog on three legs is real for so many of us. This episode unpacks some of the steps owners can take to evaluate the severity of the situation.   Why is conditioning a dog to a crate an important component of healing?   What is the best course of action to take immediately when your dog shows a hitch?    How can you prevent your dog from injury?    For more information about Scott and Jess and their strategies or to book an online consult for behavioral issues, please check out: https://caninehealing.com   To work with Jess virtually to troubleshoot performance sport issues, click: http://www.k9healing.com/ct   To view The Quirky Dog’s website and a full catalog of episodes, visit: https://www.thequirkydog.com   To work with Scott and Jess in person within their service area (Portland, ME to Boston, MA to Manchester, NH), email them at studio@thequirkydog.com   Have you ever wondered why your dog behaves a certain way?
