Saw your note about grunting on google and joined the formu Mgracie, I had to join this form to let you know my little yorkie has been grunting lately too. The other day I noticed after he got down off the sofa that he was limping...favoring one back leg, which was a total shock. Then today, he was sitting watching out the front door, which he loves to do, and I heard loud grunting and so I'm wondering if he is having pain in that leg, even though he doesn't look like he's hurting. I guess maybe dogs don't cry or whimper when they are hurt. He is part-toy poodle and part Yorkie so he is small and I'm wondering if the amount of jumping up and off furniture and in and out the doggie door has injured his leg over his three years of life. He does love to eat more than my other regular size Yorkie, so I was thinking the grunting was from being overweight because he also breathes real loud when he sleeps. I worry about him because he has very short legs and a bit overweight. Please post if you discovered the reason for the grunting. |
