Abstract
This study describes the trot in 14 large mixed breed dogs using compu ter aided kinematic and force plate gait analysis techniques. Variance s in fore and hindlimb joint angle measurements were determined, for a given dog, by repeated trials and for differences between dogs. The m easured variances were low in all joints except the corpus, despite di verse dog conformation in the study.
