If not, may be best to have her seen again. There are conditions of the spine that can cause hind leg swelling... both legs being swollen is what is bothering me.
He checked her back and hips because he also thought there might be an injury there, she was with me all day so there is no way she had an accident without me knowing it. Both legs are not swollen now only the one. She is on the Hide a bed now trying to get comfortable and not doing so well. I am so worried about her, I just know I will not sleep
