| I think something is TERRIBLY wrong i am not exactly sure but i think something is wrong with Rex. I had him on the couch and clipped on the leash. he was so excited he was twisting and turning and then he jumpped off the couch...but the leash was caught on his leg~ he cried like crazy but after a bit of massaging he got back up..that was about an hr ago....now about 1/2 hr ago he lifted his leg off the floor and started howling again! i massaged again and he lay for a bit then got up.......i dont think its broken because he can walk....wut do u think is wrong with him |

| Sounds like he should go to the vet if he is still in pain. I do not like to mess around with that sort of thing. |

| Better safe than sorry Yes, I would say. Take him to the Dr. just to make sure everything is ok.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I totally agree - Chanel did that and cried for a few hours everytime I touched her ...even if it's minor you'll feel much better knowing it isn't anything serious - I would just go to the vet as a standby and have them take a look;...hope your baby it OK ! |

| If it's a rear leg, it could be a patella or kneecap problem. It can be fine minute and then pop out and be painful the next. Jumping off couches or high objects can exacerbate the condition or cause it. I hope it is nothing serious and he recovers and is back to himself quickly. |

| They can also get sprained legs just like we can. If the problem persists, go to a vet, sometimes they can just "play" it off when they are younger, as it happened to my Yoda a few times before... |
