I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about. Puppy is terribly clutzy. He avoids jumping, so he seems to be fully aware of his lack of grace (and if he wasn't, his faceplant into the window when attempting a 3 foot windowsill jump probably gave him a harsh reminder).
He does jump on and off the bed and couch. He makes a little sound every time he jumps down though. We have a some shelves in front of the bed, so he steps onto those first and then makes the two foot jump down. EVERY time he lands, he makes a little "Emph" sound. I've watched him, and it looks like he tries to jump down instead of out, so he kinda falls on himself. Hence the "emph". He makes no sound jumping up.
He's young, so he doesn't have arthritis. Could this be some other medical problem, or is he just not a good jumper?
