If you don’t mind my joining the conversation; I know pano. My shiloh line had it from their sire’s side. The entire litter had it their first year; but all got over it. I took my male, their half brother(same sire in)to look at him. I told the vet I could swear it was pano because it was in the line and that’s what it was. I ended up hip testing him and he showed me the pano. You will usually see pano in the first year of healthy pups; but it goes away. Because of the abuse my male had rec’d through starvation his showed up at age 3; but I have never seen it since.

Good, somebody who has more than one data point!

We were just guessing, have no idea if pano is in Ruby's background or not. It could have been an injury (you know how those crazy Lab pups jump around, and she could easily have twisted something) but the lameness moved from one foreleg to the other and then back again, then it went away. It seemed to be slightly painful (but not enough to keep her from jumping around like an idiot - just enough to make her limp, and whine when you pressed on the bone).

But it went away, and hasn't come back. Which is a good thing.
