Yes, dogs have patellas, commonly known as kneecaps. The patella is a small bone located in front of the knee joint and plays a crucial role in the mobility and stability of the dog's hind legs. In some dogs, particularly certain breeds, patellar luxation can occur, where the patella dislocates from its normal position, potentially leading to mobility issues. Regular veterinary check-ups can help identify any problems related to the patella.
