Lameness, especially when a horse is turning in circles; shifting lameness when standing. Heat in the feet. Increased digital pulse in the feet (most easily palpable over either sesamoid bone at the level of the fetlock).
Lameness means the dog has a lame leg either from birth or has injured it. It's best to have a vet look at it because if it is a problem for the dog in many cases it can be fixed.

Lameness is usually more easily observed at the trot, and will help you locate the exact leg or hoof where the trouble is.
