| This was really scary We were sitting on the couch and chloe was sitting next to us and all of a sudden chloe started screaming and holding out her front leg. We were freaking out and didnt know what to do. She was acting like it was broke or something but she didnt fall down or move or anythign so there was no way it was broke or she did anything to it. She just kept screaming for a minute or two and tried to bite me when I picked her up. I finally was able to hold her and calm her down and she is fine now and is walking on that leg with no problem at alll. She is acting like nothing happened. The only thing we can figure is maybe her leg cramped up for a second or something like that? Has this ever happened to anyone? Im so scared its going to happen again. Any ideas what it could have been?

| My little Tiki did that once, she kept limping, and then was fine. Weirdest thing, I looked at her paw with a magnifying glass and found nothing. Whatever was bothering her I will never know. That was about a month ago, and she has been fine since.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Poor baby - do you think something bit her ? Did you check for spiders and bees ? |

| Im thinking it was a leg cramp too. Im still pretty wound up from it. She scared her mommy and daddy to death. We are about to leave to run errands and I dont know if I will be able to stop thinking about it and stop worrying about her. She is literally acting like nothing happened though which is good I guess.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | One day when Ruby and I were out on the driveway, she suddenly yelped and pulled her leg up, like it hurt. It was very brief, more like she had been bitten. We have those red ants here, and I just thought it was probably one of them. I know what you mean by scary though, when something like that happens for no apparent reason, it shakes you up. Hope that was the only time this happens to her.

| the same thing happened to Lola twice, she was laying on the couch & started yelping really loud & when we tried to pick her up she would try to bite us, HARD. My boyfriend had to put socks on his hands to pick her up, but after a minute she calmed down & was fine, like nothing happened, we figured it was just a cramp, it happened when she was 14 weeks old, and it hasnt happened since |
