A dog may have front leg lameness due to a hind end problem, shoulder problem, neck problem, elbow and even toe issues.
When your dog is evaluated I will look at gait pattern, collar and all the above issues. Your vet will eval for dysplasia, thyroid and disc problems most commonly. As an animal chiropractor the evaluation has an emphasis on movement problems that your vet will not address. As an instructor at one of the animal chiropractic colleges, i can tell that this movement analysis does not enter into the vets thought process.
The treatment involves treating the movement problem and giving you the owner exercises to do w your dog.
