I asked her how she knew that and she said that when she checked his hips that he didn't like for her to feel back there. She said that it shouldn't bother him for her to check his hips. I thought he just didn't like a strange person to be touching him. The other vet said nothing about his hips. The new vet wanted to sedate him and do X-rays to check his hips. She said sometimes that they will hold their legs up from a hip problem. Has anyone heard of that?
Callie's orthopedic surgeon had to sedate her for X-rays and she did great. If the vet thinks its the hips I would go ahead with the X-rays.
