It sounds like you're observing something unusual with your puppy's back paws. At this young age, puppies are still developing, and their bones and muscles are growing. It's possible that what you're noticing is related to her natural growth and development, as puppies can sometimes have softer or more flexible joints and bones during this stage.

At home, there are a few things you can do to ensure everything is progressing well:

Firstly, observe her movement closely. Watch how she walks and plays. If she seems to be moving normally without any signs of pain or limping, it might just be part of her growth process.

When you examine her paws, handle them gently. Puppies can be quite sensitive, and it's important to avoid causing any discomfort.

Keep an eye on her paws over the next few weeks. Monitor for any changes in shape, size, or her ability to walk and play.

Additionally, ensure she is on a balanced diet appropriate for her age, as proper nutrition supports healthy bone and muscle development.

If you notice any signs of pain, swelling, or if her mobility is affected, it would be wise to consult with a veterinarian to ensure everything is developing normally. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
