    Willow hurt her front leg thursday evening she decided to jump a ditch and landed at the bottom of a tree. She limped home. Ww checked it to make sure nothing broken then put her to bed.

    In am (friday) limp was gone and we touched all over leg and paw and she didnt cry or pull away whem ww touched.

    Assume will judt take few days to feel better. Today shes walking on it but not putting 100% pressure on it. Not walked her since it happened. Shes fine in herself. Eating and trying to make us play with her.

    Should i take her to vets monday if still not better? Its not a limp sort of not putting all her weight on it

    You know, there seem to be so many problems with our labs, I would say if not gone by Monday, check with the vet xx

    Ditto what jackie said, same sort of thing happened to barley on thursday, one episode of limping, next day limp gone but not putting even weight on leg, he is better now, rest, a heat pack and massage are all good
