the vet seems to think it is a ruptured disk..he gave her some pain medication and said to keep him quiet for 3 weeks..a little hard to do don't you think? does anyone have any suggestions on what we should do next..they didn't do an x-ray and seem to think it was in the lower back area but my daughter says it seems to be most sensative in her upper shoulder or lower neck area..she said if you touch him there he tries to nip at you...I am wondering if she needs to go to a different vet!
