Did the vet x-ray Jackson's hip also? Piper had Legg Perthes and she walked exactly the way Jackson is walking (carrying the leg). My first yorkie, Chipper, had Lyme Disease when he was a puppy. He did limp but he was putting a little weight on the leg and not just totally carrying the leg. Chipper also had a fever with the Lyme. Once Chipper was on the antibiotics all symptoms went away within a couple days while Piper needed surgery for the Legg Perthes. Hope Jackson is feeling better soon.
