My best guess is that it is because of the flea shampoo. My sister has a Cocker and when she bathed him he got lathergic and sore....she thought he couldn't walk....at first he couldn't. Then she realized that his feet were sore and he didn't want to use them. She did take him to the vet. SECOND story....I called my friend the next day to warn her not to treat her dog for the fleas she had. Here she had already done it the day before and her Yorkie mix was not herself and didn't want to come out of her bed not did she want to use her legs or eat. Both dogs took a good 4 days to even start getting back to being their normal selves. Just to be safe, I'd wash her down a couple of times with Dawn dishwashing liquid to get the flea shampoo/soap off of her. PLEASE let us know how she is doing. If this is the case, a half of a baby aspirin will help her with the pain. That is the dose my vet recommends.
