My baby Pixie had Legg-Perths Disease. At first one of the vets that I seen thought that it was LP but in the end it ended up being LPD. If your dog continues to hold her leg up I would suggest getting her to a vet asap and do a x-ray. The leg could loss muscle mass. If it ends up being legg-perths they tend to compare 2 x-rays to see if the joint is degenerating fast than do surgery. The sooner you do this the better as recover is faster if the leg still has muscle.
Good luck and keep us updated. |
