The photo of the dog is entirely unhelpful.  I don't know WHAT is going on in it.  It looks like a dog's tail to me.  So I deleted it.  I found a much better image of a dog with EDS online, but I can't just swipe it.   

 I will upload some EDS hypermobility pix when I get a chance.  In the near future, EDNF will have a VERY extensive photo library of EDS online. In the meantime, no pictures are better than crappy, misleading ones.  EDS is doing its photo library b/c there actually isn't much online that's good.  Even the Mayo Clinic's pix are weird and almost wrong.  People looking for pix can follow the links at the bottom of the page.
