| Please help me! So last night, Bailey saw a stray cat that has been taking occupancy on the sidewalk rain drain right outside of our house. Somehow, this cat managed to jump our 4 ft fence(we have chicken wire through the bottom) and ended up on our back porch. We were sitting outside in the screened in porch and Bailey saw the cat sitting there, so she rain threw the screen door(it was unlocked) and she jumped down all 4 large steps to chase the cat away.... And let me tell you, that cat could jump! It went right back over the fence. So long story short, Bailey woke up this morning and she was limping, bad. We would take her outside and she would not go to the bathroom. She would lay down at our feet. Throughout the day, she got better... And started running, we tried to stop that but you all know yorkies! They have a mind of their own! Bailey hurt the same leg a while ago, and we took her to the vet and they said she just needs to rest it and they gave her meds. We still have them... Should we give it to her? Please help!! |

| My girls lose their minds when they see cats or squirrels in our yard!! I hope Bailey is going to be ok. I would give her a little pain med if you have some of that. It will probably help her sleep. If she isn't better tomorrow, maybe you should take her in for eval at the vet. |

| Did he say what it was that was causing it to hurt? Is it LP?

| He didn't say. The vet said that nothing showed up note X-rays and that if the limping continued then she would have to do doggie physical therapy. Today it seems a lot better, with only a little limping. |

| It seems like it is reoccurring and if she is not seeing anything on x-rays I would have an orthopedic surgeon look at his leg. I would not do physical therapy until you have a cause of the limp because it could just make some things worse.
