I have spent quite a bit of time with Black Ivy the past few weeks while doctoring her sore hocks. I have been watching how she hops, walks, sits, and lies. I have felt all over her body, particularly her hips, back legs, and hocks.  She is walking more on the hocks rather than always on her toes and even standing up on her back legs which she had not done since we got her. When Ivy would sit, she is still purposely positions her legs to be close together when settling, but she is doing that less often now. Her hindquarters, hips, and legs are still thinner than they should be. Her hocks feel narrow. I believe she has pinched hips with a narrow frame. All these things could contribute to or even cause sore hocks. In the picture below, she is stretching up with more pressure on her back legs than she would tolerate previously. Her back legs are still kind of close together, but I am wondering now that she has no pain walking and standing, if she will begin to hop and stand up...
