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. I have a little 15 lb. male Cockapoo that has a slightly twisted hind right leg and in both knee joints there is a pop. The vet has said to leave it for not, but my husband and I are stashing some money aside to have surgery done in another year.
Shifting leg lameness in dogs can be caused by various factors such as joint issues, muscle strains, ligament injuries, arthritis, or neurological problems. It is important to consult a veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Where ever there are bones, the bones can be broken. If your dog is showing lameness, take him or her to your Veterinarian, plus make sure there is no more fighting going on.

I find that lameness is when something (example: a horse) is disabled so that walking is hard to do or cannot be done. Unsoundness, however, is being weak or infirm. Many people think lameness and unsoundness are the same, but they're not.
A visit by a vet or a farrier.
You can detected lameness from a horse because its back legs should be staright not floppy it should not be nappy it shouldn't have puss in its eye and it should not have a skinny belly
Early disseminated Lyme disease is characterized by ongoing fatigue; arthritis-like pains in the joints; a headache that comes and goes; inflammation of the tendons and their protective sheaths (synovitis)
They are just different degrees of the same thing. Tenderness is 'a little touchy' and may have some swelling or puffiness. Lameness is beyond a little touchy, where the horse is obviously favoring a certain foot or leg. Lameness is usually more easily observed at the trot, and will help you locate the exact leg or hoof where the trouble is.
The word would be "sound".
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).
If you are awesome like me, their lameness is attractive. Remember, opposites attract!
