When they came back an hour later Mom noticed straight away that I was on 3 feet instead of 4! I was holding up my back right leg and wouldn't put it on the floor. Mom was all in a panic and called the vet straight away and we headed off to see him, (Yay - I got a car ride!)
Mr Vet checked all my toes and all my joints - he couldn't find anything. He checked my ligaments and muscles and no amount of prodding caused a single response. I am after all the MOST stoic doggie he has EVER met. So after scaring Mom and Dad (that will teach them for leaving me) it appears I may just have strained a muscel - probably from racing off the back deck to fast). I have some anti inflammatory pills and some pain medicine to take and he says if I am still favoring it on Monday to come back.
In the meantime I am just lazing around and enjoying LOTS of extra pampering - MOMMMMM bring me another cookie and add some cheese to it too!!!!!!!!!!
I bet you strained it holding on too tightly to your bone, Reilly! Glad it's nothing major. Milk it!
ReplyDeleteAntique store...hmmm...looking for more goodies for the little town? X
Oh no! I hope you're all better in the morning. For now, enjoy your extra goodies.
