My cat is sick
Posted on 2008/02/14 by User -
I have had a stray mixed breed outside dog for 6 years. I estimate his age to be 7 or 8 years. Yesterday he appeared to be fine - playing, eating and normal behaviour. Last night I noticed he was limping - which has progressed to both front and back legs stiff and weak. I have manipulted his leges looking for muscle soreness broken bones, sores or bites. I found nothing. Neither did he appear to be botherd by my checking. I kept him inside last night (which is something he generally does not tolerate) and he appears to be worse this morning. he was lethargic but also moved around quite a bitlike he was trying to get comfortable. He ate a little this morning and...

limping/favoring leg
Posted on 2008/03/05 by ElaineLate this morning we noticed that Tera was favoring her right hind leg. She had been in the backyard with our other dog, and we noticed it when she came in.I checked her paw pads for cuts, stickers, etc...didnt see anything. She now walks on just three legs and has the "hurt" leg hiked up in the air. Should I wait another day and see if it gets better, or should I take her to her vet to get it checked? Thank you!

Updated question and X-ray results
Posted on 2008/03/14 by UserThis is an update to the previous question that I had asked. Our Vet called and had posted Bubbles' X-rays to a website for other vets to look at. They said the Rad's showed no abnormalities and one tiny area where there is arthritis near the tip of her tail. Other than that it all looked great. Since my last question she has started dragging her left hind leg a little bit which prompted the X-rays which were taken on 3/11/08. And when we woke up this morning to give her a morning pain pill we noticed that she is starting to drag her other hind leg as well. Just not as bad as the left side. She has now stopped taking the Deramaxx and is now taking Tramadol 50mg every 8...

My dog Lizzy is a Sharpei/bassett mix. She is 5 years old and overweight. She's had trouble recently being able to jump up on the bed and getting up the back steps. I've put her on weight control dog food. Yesterday we took a short walk (about a mile) and I could tell she was having a hard time at the end. Last night and this morning she could barely stand up and her hind legs were shaking. Could it be something else is the problem or simply she is not in good shape?

Pain Reliever
Posted on 2008/03/18 by PatMy older cat has been limping for quite some time and now occasionally she will not use her right front leg. I believe she may have developed arthritis in that leg. Is there a safe over the counter pain reliever that I can give her?
