| Back Pain? Help please My little guy, Bode, just turned a year old. We moved into a new house and he was with his grandma for a week. He came home and was acting strange so we thought it was because we were in a new house. He used to jump up and down on the couch and now sits and waits for us to pick him up. When we pick him up he breathing becomes really heavy and sometimes he yelps. We have taken him to two vets and they can't really figure out what is wrong. They gave us pain medication and muscle relaxers and told us to keep him in his kennel most of the day. They took x-rays and they don't show much. It has been almost 2 weeks now and he is not getting better. The vet thinks it is his back. We took him back in today to spend the night and have more x-rays taken. Has anyone had a similar problem with their yorkie. He is my first dog and has turned into my child. I feel helpless and heartbroken to see him in so much pain. Thank you. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I had a Yorkie Zorro who one day mu husband came home from work and called me at work to say he thought that Zorro had had a stroke. He wouldn't walk and he kept his head down. I came home and took him to the vet and they sent me to a specialist who diagnosed him with a herniated disc. I have no idea how it happened. He was put on some medicine and they said if it didn't get better they would have to do surgery. It took a couple of weeks but then he was back to normal. I hope you find the reason and he gets better soon.
