| Limping? Tiny started limping on Monday of this week, but he continues to play and jump and do his normal? I have a appointment set up but I'm not sure if I should just wait and see how things go...Maybe he just has a sprang or something like that? Has anyone ever had to deal with anything like this? And I was wondering? If they did think of something like that..Other than a break would they still need to take X-rays or what? Just wondering what you guys think? I just dunno how to act when 1 minute he's running just fine and then the next minute...He's running but trying not to put to much pressure on that leg or foot? I duuno? |

| It could as simple as a sprain or it could be the knee popping in and out of place, also called Luxating Patella. My female yorkie (1 1/2 yrs. old) experienced the same limping off and on symptoms, unfortunately, she has a deformed hip also referred to as hip dyplasia. It doesn't slow her down any though and I am treating her. I hope for you and your baby it's just a minor sprain. They are wild little ones and fearless when it comes to jumping. |
