limping, in pain. please help. my 8 months old yorkie is in pain.
i was in the bathroom when i heard a small yip from him.
he's started to limp on christmas day. which is 3 days ago. i notice today ( 3 days later ) it look alittle better, but still some limping going on
after that, he just limp his rear left leg. * he follows me just like before.
* he eats and goes to bathroom just like before
* he tend to sleep more.
* he still plays with his toys. * He use to running around the house really fast, then *humps* something then goes to sleep. ( ever since the limp. he stop running really fast, and *humping*. * he bites me when i touch his left rear feet, yet sometimes he does not. * i check everywhere, seems like nothing from outside.
other info:
sometimes i see him walking normal, like nothing happened. after a few more steps, he started to lift his rear left foot and limp. same as running.
i also try to make him stand on my hand. i notice his left rear feet ( can't stand up ), while his right rear feet have strong pull.
does anyone know what is the cause of this?
i called up a vet and ask. she said it might be a muscle pull. how long does MUSCLE PULL LAST???
