Hello and welcome to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. If Shady is having trouble walking, or seems painful, then I recommend you have him seen by a vet as soon as possible. He could have a disease of growing puppies called HOD, or panosteitis, or could have a fracture or dislocation. He could also be weak or neurological causing abnormal walking. Best of luck with Shady!
