Sometimes nerves can be involved and damaged so no pain is felt. I once shattered my toe, I mean just destroyed the entire bone, nail everything when a chair fell on it. You could even see the bone. Anyway after the intial pain I didn't feel a thing. The dr's told me I shattered not only the bone but the nerves as well so no pain. The bone eventually grew back after stitches & meds for infection and wearing a boot for 3 months but I never had any pain...
so if the pup is still limping I would bring her in, these dogs can easily break bones, even from a short jump or fall |
