| Little Coco is limping My little Coco is limping, I think. He is just not walking right. He seems to have a little swagger now. My daughter noticed it when he came in from the backyard. He is able to jump on the couch and jump off with no trouble but I think it might be his front leg. I can't figure it out. If it hurt him he would not be able to jump up or down. He never yelped or anything. I'm just a little puzzled. For now I am just going to watch him. Who knows maybe he just twisted it or something. I hurt when they hurt.

| If he doesnt' seem like he is in any serious pain...then you might wait until tomorrow and see if he's still limping....if so I'd take him to the Vet and have it checked out....but if he seems to be in alot of pain...I'd call your Vet immediately.... Hope he is ok!!

| Ok now I want to cry. It seems to be his back leg. My dh just came home from work and Coco didn't go greet him. He wanted to jump off the couch but was hesitant. It doesn't really seem to be bothering him he is putting weight on it but he is just still limping. I will watch him very closely and see how he is. He is eating and trying to steal treats from Pebbles. I don't know.

| Yea me too!! My daughter just did a joint check and nothing is bothering him in the back. It is definatly his front right leg. She was walking him like a real boy and he was fine. When she picked up his back legs like a wheelbarrow race he was limping on that leg. At least I know what leg it is. His joints are all working and there is nothing stuck on the bottom of his foot ot in between his pads. I will watch him closely.

| I think it'd be good to restrict his jumping as it maybe a simple twist that he could make worse by jumping on it. I'm praying all is well. So sorry he got hurt.
