Dogs can get flat feet if there not able to do much walking like always jus in a small kennel or wat ever bit of road work or leave them loose out in the garden by day

Did you notice it when you got it at 6-8wks or do you think its just happened ?? some dogs genetically can have a bad foot or it could of been trod on or anything,accidents happen with pups,it could of always been like that and you just never noticed untill now that its growing,time will tell,I take it its not limping on it then,WM

That pups had cracking feet when he left me. Hope he comes back right for you mate.

There is always a danger that pups might injure themselves as they tear about playing, and unless there is an open wound to attract our attention, things often go unnoticed. Getting feet caught in mesh wire and pulling hard to get free is one of the causes, ditto trapped foot in a doorway etc. If the toes are now flat it is most likely they'll stay that way, depending on whether or not the ligaments are actually torn or just stretched. Rest is the only solution for stretched ligaments, but if you've left it too long and the pup has been running about since the injury happened, they'll likely stay stretched.
