Hunter started limping over the holiday weekend and since this has happened a few times we knew just what to do (1) give him 2 consecutive doses of anti-inflamatory/pain medication (2) restrict movement and (3) ensure he gets some rest.
Well, its now Wednesday night and while we initially saw some improvement we aren't seeing any more. He is walking on the leg and not limping but the leg is almost being slighly dragged. I don't know how to explain it - you can only see if from behind him. When he goes outside he won't walk but doesnt a funny little bunny hop. So, DH is going to call the vet to see what he suggests.
I hope its not what we both fear - something only surgery can fix!
