I am sorry the pictures of Tyson did not come through. dogs can be born with valgus and Vargus which are congenital leg deformities. I would recommend taking him to a veterinarian to have his legs checked out and x-rays to determine if there is a problem with the growth and formation. Unfortunately there is nothing you can really do at home. Hope that's helps!
