Elite Veteran Posts: 788	I had a 2 year old off the track that popped when he walked. I took him to the vet because I was worried and they said it was his knees. There was nothing wrong with him, just a growing thing. I dont remember how they explained it. But, he grew out of it, stopped when he was about 3 and a half.

I've had it explained to me before that it is like popping your knuckles, its just air built up in the joint and it doesn't really hurt anything.
