Last night while I was walking Puddles, he started to run. Then all of a sudden he started to scream and fell down. I scooped him up he continued to scream. Finally after several minutes I got him to calm down. Took him to the Vet ER and he was checked over very well. Several xrays were done. He started to put a little weight on the leg while at the Vet. The vet said his patella was sliding out of place. Was given meds for inflamation with instructions of no running or jumping for 5 days. If no better in 2 days he's to see his regular vet and he may have to have surgery if it don't improve.
How in the world do you keep a busy little boy still? Last night he stayed in his crate and today he's limited to the den area. This morning at potty time he walked with the leg down a little more, but noticed a little limp once in a while.
Any one had any dealings with this type of probelm? I need help and suggestions on what to do. Is this normal problems for the Maltese breed?
So worried !!
