What happens to a Golden Retriever’s legs from calcium deficiency?
A calcium-deficient Golden Retriever puppy easily gets O- and X-legs, and double rows of teeth during teething. Severe deficiency causes poor bone growth or rickets, plus fractures, weak limbs, sudden hind-leg paralysis, lethargy and poor appetite, and postpartum tremors when lactating. Feed complete food and supplement, and see a vet for deformity or paralysis.

What happens to a puppy’s legs if it lacks calcium?
Calcium deficiency in puppies causes poor bone growth — short, bent, deformed legs and slow development; teething pups may get a double row of teeth. Adults get weak hind legs and fractures; pregnant dogs risk hypocalcemia with convulsions.
