Limping and a lump

Last night Reilly started limping and it got to the point where he couldn't put any weight on his right front leg. This morning he seemed a little better but over the coarse of the morning it has got worse again. I checked his foot, pads, knee and shoulder last night multiple times and couldn't see anything wrong. He was moving them fine and didn't show any response when these were light squeezed or touched. This morning when I checked though I found a large lump up on the top part of his leg. It feels kind of squishy. It is so worrying an unfortunately the earliest we can get him into the vets is tomorrow. Please keep your paws crossed for my beautiful boy - we will update as soon as we have some news.

  4. Oh no! Waiting for a vet appointment can be the worst. Tell your mom not to worry too much, it doesn't do any good anyway.

    We will be thinking about you! Let us know how you make out at the vet.

  9. I'm definitely saying a prayer for Reilly and Mommy for a good outcome tomorrow and peace while you are waiting. I think waiting is the worst. Who knows, it may even be dissolved by tomorrow. Let's keep our paws crossed.
