She also shows no pain, when she runs she will hold it up and run on three legs. Vet said not to worry now if she is not in pain and can walk ok. But we need to keep an eye on her for later on, as they age they can grow arthritis in the injured spot. (kind of like human arthritis).
I hope your baby is ok and if that is what is going on it isn't to a serious stage. I feel so bad for my Sophie when I see her run on three legs.  |
Thank you for your support. I know I feel so bad when I see Peanut do his little limp too!! I noticed he does it more when it is cold outside.. Thankfully we are in Calif, so its not that cold!! I took him for a walk yesterday and he lasted about 20 mins then he started to lift and I carried him home..
He doesnt seem to be in ANY PAIN. So that makes me feel better. I havent taken him to the vet yet, b/c I have no money right now. I have to wait till I get my check, then for sure he will be going. I know there is not much the vet can do. What did the vet do for Sophie???
I did order some Cosequin. I will start him on that as soon as I get it. I am no dumb bunny I know for sure that he has it.
Do you have Sophie on any supplements? A Yt'er "Capt_noonie" refered me to this website
EntirelyPets Discount Pet meds Pet Supplies & Flea Medicine they have some good things that is where I am getting the Cosequin.. I am also thinking of getting some Arthritis Supplement, or some Joint Treats.
