okay in human medicine with a sprain the acronym is RICE. Rest Ice Compress and Elevate. I would as Kristin says limit severly her activities; crate rest, and only leave crate to pee/poo. I you have ice packs that you can place around knee that would be the ice part. Or if not, pick up your darling - have an ice cube wrapped in a facecloth and as you pet her hold that ice over the knee. The compression can be a vet bandage. The elevation is more hard to do with a doggie. but you could hold up the leg while you are doing the icing. My best wishes for a speedy recovery |
I am so sorry that Kacee hurt her leg. Prayers going out for her. |
Poor girl. I hope she is feeling better this evening. |
I hope your precious little girl heals quickly from her injury and that she feels better very soon. |
Thank you all. I appreciate any ideas. She has always been very active and not the type of puppy that I would have purchased a stroller for. Now I wish we had one. She loves to be outside, so I have taken her out and carried her around a few times and then I sit her down to potty. She's not walking any better this evening. She will hobble and then carry it.:( |
Oh poor little Kacee:( I just got logged in and just now seeing this. Sending lots of hugs and kisses and healing prayers for that sweet baby. |

Poor little Kaycee! It is so hard to keep them from being so mobile. It will be hard but maybe it will heal on her own if she limits her movement. Give the sweet baby hugs. |
She must have wrenched that leg muscle pretty badly and have tissue tearing, bleeding, swelling in it. Hope you don't have to crate-confine her to make her mostly rest it - they hate enfored rest so much. You feel so helpless when you see them limping around and hurting. I pray that she's doing much better in a few days. |
Poor baby, I will be Praying for her to have a speedy recovery. You can ask your vet about soaking it in Epsom Salts. My vet had me do the Epsom Salts with a leg injury & it really helped lots. |
Poor Kacee- Peanut and I are sending hugs, warm thoughts and prayers- Hope she gets better soon!! Xoxo |

i hope shes feeling better my assumption is it will take sometime...maybe get a stroller for her now while she is having this issue or borrow one so you can still let her get fresh air without having to hold her and she will be comfortable. just a thought. hope she heals soon. |
