Last night we went for our regular around the neighborhood walk. We were not even hlaf way done when she began to limp. She kept holding her left front paw up and so I did my normal check her out routine! Check the paw, clear! Check the leg, clear! Check the back (which is always so scary to do) clear!!
I carried her the rest of the walk and we did not let her walk for the rest of the evening. When we went to bed we gave her a low dose pain pill.
She fell asleep right away and we were hopeful this morning. However when she got up to give me kisses I could tell she did not want to put any pressure on that leg.
Off to the Emergency Clinic we went. They checked her with a full physical and determined that it is a soft tissue injury.
We are not sure how it happened but we have her on pain meds and hope that with rest she will once again make a full recovery.
