Might help: we once had a cocker spaniel that (at only 3 yrs old) got so stiff she could hardly walk, every vet wanted to do expensive surgery, which was out of the question. I decided to call one more vet and he came out to the house gave her a steroid shot and she went on to live with nary a back problem again until she died at age 15. The vet's response: don't get sucked into surgeries and gimmicks, as most vets are in for the money, think like a person...if you had a stiff back would you automatically do surgery without trying a medication of some sort? He's still our vet. He's honest and knowledgeable and never sticks you with some sort of wacky expensive care all based on a 'guess'.
So in other words, maybe your dog just needs a shot of pain med or something for a pulled muscle??? Worth a shot (no pun intended). Just trying to be helpful, as I know there are so many vets out there advising all sorts of "cures" when often the simplest thing is the fix and the first to be overlooked.
