Have you got an experienced frined or a RI who could look at him as well? Or ask your vet to have a look.

I'm sure I read somewhere that locking stifles can be common in minis; it might be worth having a vet check him out just in case it's something like that.

without seeing him in action it is impossible to give an answer, if you are concerned I would arrange for the vet to take a look at him
