| Help,my 4 month old puppy is hurt!!! I feel so bad... I swear I am always very careful when the a dog is on the grooming table. I stretch out to reach the towel paper for one second... but it only took that long for little 4 months old Bam-Bam to jump down.And then he cry so hard for 1 minute... my 6 oder yorkies all group up in a corner... they all got really scare.. I feel so bad about... my poor baby... awwwww I wish I could turn time back.. One of is little leg got hurt. He was awake for 40 min after it happen and he is now sleeping. I think it is for the best to let him rest for a little. He look very traumatized, doesn't walk around much,sit in a weird way and he is scare of me. He did took the treat i gave him and eat it... And he isn't crying when he walk.But He just walk on 3 leg. So I have check is leg, I can bend it and stretch it out with out making him cry so I think it is good sign. I have cancel all my appointments for the day to stay home to watch him. If it doest get better, I will go to my vet obviously. I FEEL TERRIBLE ABOUT IT. Any advice? Should I put ice or heating pad on his little leg? Let him rest? Wait a few day? Take him o the vet asap? He doesn't look like he is in pain, but how long should I check out if he recovering for before going to the vet? PLEASE, any advice? |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | So he is not walking on it at all? For that high of a fall, and at that age - I'd take him in if he's not walking on it. The sooner you treat a break, the better. Do NOT put heat on it. I do hope he is okay, wishing you the best.

| Back from the vet Ok so the vet said that the leg doesn't look broken but more like a muscular pull. I am going to massage his leg and make sure he get lots of rest for now, but If he doesn't look better by Sunday,then he recommend x-rays. The little one fall asleep s chewing on a bone. he doesn't look like he is suffering Hope he will be better soon... |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Oh, good news - I do hope it is indeed only a pull - my fingers are crossed for him! I bet you're so relieved to hear that it was just a pull, at this point anyway. I will keep him in my thoughts and keep hoping that he doesn't need xrays.

| awww poor baby!! So happy you had the vet look at him....hopefully it's just a pulled muscle. It's so scary when these little babies fall...they are so delicate.....you and your baby are in our thoughts!!
