My english bulldog Miki is 10.5 yrs old. I hear a popping noise when she lays down on her belly, sits down, or when she is about to urinate. The sound is coming from her back area, I am assuming it is her hips or her joints. I was wondering if I would have to start giving her joint supplements...

So I took Achilles on walk yesterday and I met up with my girlfriend and sister in law who also have a bulldog puppy Vinny, 6 months old. When the dogs were walking next to each other I noticed Vinny's walk is very very different from Achilles. Its kind of hard to describe but you can...
