Hi I am looking for some advice on my TT. He is 12 months old and I have noticed a slight turn in his back paw. I have mentioned this to the vet who seams to think its not that bad, but to keep an eye on it and if it gets any worse he will send him for xrays on his hips. This is not causing him any problems (stiffness in the legs, lameness or limping). Any advice would be appreciated. Melanie

Perhaps one of the main breeders could shed some light on this for you.     I have joined a group for TT owners  -  TTsUK@yahoogroups.com   if I have a problem I contact them.

I've just tried going onto this site and its not there anymore. Do you have an update for it at all. I also have TT's and would be most interested in going on it.
Mawellmel. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have his hips scored as he's at the right age for getting them done as,if you were going to use him for breeding this really does need doing, along with his eyes tested for pra & lla. Then at least if his hips are done you would know whether or not it was those causing his problem.
The average hip score for TT's is 16. Anything over that should really be used for breeding.

Try   tibetanterrier-owner@yahoogroups.com  There are three groups that you can join.    Let me know if you still have a problem finding it.

Hi Jackie. Nope that ones not coming up, but I have managed to get onto the yahoo one now and have asked to become a member so hopefully I'll get on it properly soon
