Dog with sudden limp - CLICK HERE for the Pet Manual Forum Home Page
Icgtti3n
Hi, I have a mix breed (maybe beagle/aussie?) who developed a
progressive limp that over one day led her to not use her back left
leg. She never had any acute injury, and as far as I can tell is in
no pain. I examined all of her joints, bones, skin, and there is
nothing, and nothing hurts her, but she will put no pressure on it.
She can still move it (but prefers not to) and feels it when I touch
her leg. If it does not get better by tomorrow I am going to take her
to the vet, but any suggestions or thoughts in the meantime?

Thanks,

Kl
