Love to the Cooper man!
I think I posted about this before... Peek was coming into the house and I saw him take a bad step, then he limped into the house. I snatched him up saying 'Peek A Boo, What have you done?' I checked his foot for a foreign body and found none, he got squirmy, so I kissed his knee and put him down, and watched him walk away like nothing had happened! I kept a close eye on him for the next few weeks... actually still do, but it has never recurred...KOW!

PS: Some dogs have a very low pain threshold...

One dog that came into the vet's for an evaluation walked with quite an obvious limp. The vet had the owner walk the dog past him, then turn around and walk back past him again. Each time, the dog limped on the side closest to the vet!... lol.
