I agree with taking your pup to the vet. My little Ralph was favoring one leg after a trip to the groomer. He only limped slightly and did not flinch when we touched or bent the leg. Since it was the weekend, I figured he was okay. By Tuesday when I came home from work I knew something wrong. He had been running around and playing ever since the inury, but when we held him he would shake. He was only eating a little. The vet said dogs often hide injuries. She said the shaking was because he was in such pain! I felt terrible! Poor Raph. She gave me some pain meds for him and he recovered comfortably. I won't forget that lesson!
Good luck. |
