Does anyone have any thoughts on might could be going on with Muffin? For 2 days now, she intermittedly limps with her left back foot off the ground...we have checked her foot and leg as well as her hips by gently applying pressure to them and she is not whining or "complaining" when we do that. She still plays and runs around (usually hobbles every time she runs). Any suggestions? I have an appt scheduled for her Mon. at the vet, but thought I'd check with all here because you are all great listeners when it comes to furbabies needs....oh yeah, she turned 1 last month...could it be arthritis at such a young age?
