Hi,
I am getting very worried about my Yorkie Maverick, he is 9 months old and has so far not had a single health problem. Tonight he started out by licking his front right leg excessively however when we pressed on it he didn't seem to show any signs of pain in the region. I woke up a few hours later and he was still doing it but ow he was twitching and chomping at the air, when I try and calm him down he begins to lick me almost uncontrollably. I plan on taking him to the vet in the morning but I am wondering if this is something I should be super worried about or if he just has a bug bite or something. This is my third time tonight being woken up by the problem and I cannot sleep, any thoughts?

PS. The other day we noticed he had a bit of white liquid in his pee.... not sure if its related.
