| Oh so sorry to here Bella is having this problem. I don't have any canine expertise in this area but wondered if she is being evaluated by a specialist vet such as neurology or ortho board certified? Hope you can get this worked out. Sorry i cant be of more help other than prayers and support. Others here may have had experience with this.

| Pinched Nerve She acts like she is in pain because SHE IS in pain. I sympathize with the poor thing. Have had this happen in my lower back and well as cervical discs in my neck. I hope the steroids work. Have you been able to keep her inactive? That helps a lot but I know with a dog it is probably difficult. Heat helps too. Good Luck BELLA!! Julia
