Isn't it fun seeing how different gait and styles of movement can be between breeds, too? Zeus is I think in much the same weight range as Kiba, although more stockily built -- and you wouldn't expect to see it from such a squarely-built little beastie, but he has such a lightly bouncy prancing sort of gait that he almost seems to be minceing half of the time. It's a little comical to see this sturdy beast moving so delicately -- until the first time you see him on deep snow and it all makes sense, because that bounciness has him just leaping effortlessly through drifts like a huge gray bunny.

Jake, now, he really showed the long-haul-endurance nature of mals opposed to sprinter-sibes; he'd move with a very wolfy sort of lope that had not an ounce of wasted movement. Not too fast or flashy but he could just keep going like that effortlessly all day. And Biscuit, well, she just has this funny rolling gait like a sailor who hasn't quite gotten his land-legs back yet. Not the most graceful thing, but she just trundles along like a muscle-bound little tank. :)
