If it is a back/neck injury specific protocol needs to be taken, and if it's her knees a simple palpation can usually determine if they are luxating or not.
Please keep her confined until she is able to be examined. Now I'm worried about her  |
Thanks for the heads up! But now I'm even more worried!
I felt EVERY part of her and she doesn't react to me feeling around. The only times she's yelped was when picking her up (so I was thinking it was a leg or armpit area) but she doesn't yelp every time we pick her up. I can't tell what's making her yelp in pain! I did feel down her back and she didn't respond to that, if she hurt her back would she be responding in pain when I touch it???
At her last vet visit less than a month ago the vet said her knees were still fine. Could a knee issue come up that quickly?
Well she's very mellow right now (as she's been all day) so confining her and limiting her isn't an issue right now. I guess we will find a vet tomorrow!
