Once when Ginger and Maggie got into it, Maggie let out a yelp and wouldn't put one of her back legs down. We took her to the vet and found out she has grade 3 luxating patella in both rear legs. They gave her an injection and some meds to take, and we had to keep her quiet and crated for a few days. She came out of it and has been fine since. The vet said we can keep an eye on the LP and address it in the future if it becomes a chronic problem for her or causes her discomfort.
Not sure if your dogs have been checked for luxating patella or not, but that may be what caused the limp after the fight. Just a thought.
