Clicking!

Berit has started clicking. I can't tell if it's her knee, hip, elbow, or what. About half the time she's romping around, she sounds like someone cracking their knuckles, or those bad-knee clicks that the Adorable Husband has all the time.

We thought at first it was her collar, but after taking it off and letting her romp in the backyard, it's definitely her making the clicking noise. She doesn't seem to be in any pain, and it certainly hasn't slowed her down much.

I'm hoping it's just a fast-growing side-effect (they are about six inches taller than they were two weeks ago!) and it is nothing serious, but we have a vet appointment today, just in case. With such big beasties, we always worry about hip dysplasia or other bone problems, but just two weeks ago, our vet thought she felt fine. But, like I said, they are growing like the proverbial weeds, so who knows. Gah.
