My 15-month old male shepherd's front feet are a little east-west right now. If it doesn't get better as he ages, how serious is this fault in the AKC show ring? He's looking really good otherwise but I don't want to waste my money on entry fees if he's not going to win because of this issue. Any opinions are much appreciated!

Can you try to take a picture or 2 ? Try taking pictures of him when he is walking also. If he has long loose ligaments right now because he is a teenager it may get stronger with excersize. Other people on the board can give you some idea's on diet to help the ligaments including Vita c .

He should have gained sufficient strenth is his ligaments by 15 months age, it is a serious fault if it remains so, walking him on sand may help.
