It usually takes several weeks of restricted activity to heal when surgery isn't called for.
I believe a torn ligament would show swelling? When the vet checked him early last week, he was hurt in 3 areas on his right side. His hip, back and right shoulder, which leads me to believe he fell or got hurt playing (which i somehow did not see). Today is day 3 that i have not seen him limping. He escaped a couple of times and ran through the house just fine

We go to the vet tomorrow for his last puppy shots, so she will recheck those sore areas.
