hi was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions Murphy my 16 wk old black lab has since last night started limp on his back leg just for few seconds when he gets up from laying down !! He seems absolutely fine after few mins still jumping up and running around doesn't seem bother him At all !! Was just little worried as he had bit mad run around at park yesterday with another dog then we had walk back so prob made his walk more energetic than usual worried Caused some damage ! X
It sounds as if a muscle may be a little tender but if he is still limping tomorrow morning on getting up I would take him to the vet for a check. Can't be too careful with limps.
Yep, can't be too careful...... Keep him fairly calm for a day or two, try to restrict hoolie-opportunities, but definitely vet if persisting more than a day or two.
Good advice given , most limps do rectify on their own but I do think its best to be safe , hope all is well soon .
Thanks if is still same tomo will get him checked over !! As very strange he is weight bearing on it fully doesn't seem be bothered by it all like said only last few seconds soon as he gets up !! He is now curled up flat out in lounge hopefully just sprain !! God don't these puppy's worry you !! X
