I just came back from the vet. We found out that his skull with the soft spot was suppose to close by his age but there is still a little opening. She was scared that him walking in circles was a neurological problem. There's no pain in his leg or body but he's very scared when people touch his butt.

what did the vet say? did you guys get an x-ray? is the puppy ok? please update!

his hind legs are actually normal, one was born dislocated, that's why he doesn't put pressure on it,

What is the vet doing for diagnosis and treatment?
Walking in circles can be neurological. Is the vet sending you to a neurologist?

So what DID the vet do? Any xrays? What did she recommend?

krysvo · 01-26-2009, 12:43 PM

thank you for everyones concern the vet think that it might be a neurological problem and I would need to see a neurologist to better understand but the consultation is 200 dollars and then i can't imagine how much the mri scan would cost. I'm a 20 year old college student, I can't afford that =(

Ellie May · 01-26-2009, 12:45 PM

Did he have circling before he got stepped on?

How about Care Credit?

krysvo · 01-26-2009, 12:45 PM

no xrays she just checked on the legs and body seeing if everything was moving fine. moving the head up and down and checking the reflexes. She concluded that the way he walk is normal just needs time to heal but he's not in any pain. but the fact that he runs in circle and puked twice saturday is a problem

krysvo · 01-26-2009, 12:46 PM

he didn't walk in circles before and his response is very slow. soemtimes when you call him he ignores you and walk away...

krysvo · 01-26-2009, 12:47 PM

what is care credit?

krysvo · 01-26-2009, 12:49 PM

other then this he's normal now... he pees fine on the matt and eats alot now. I'm scared after hearing all these stories about puppies not making it..

yorkiepuppie · 01-26-2009, 12:51 PM

the vet didn't think the puppy need an xray? that doesn't make sense. your puppy sounds like he is severely injured from being stepped on. (that would be like you getting crushed by a truck!) and then someone just checking your reflexes...

there are places that can help the puppy. your puppy needs help. who is your vet?

krysvo · 01-26-2009, 12:53 PM

well when my puppy was stepped on he only screamed twice but after that he was quiet and when you move them, he shows no pain.
