On Thursday Barney spent most of the day up the allotment with me, he was quite happy digging, sleeping and telling people off who dared to walk past the gate. Anyhow on the evening he couldn't get up the steps of the back yard or the step into the house. I thought it was very strange, normally he pelts up.
Next day he started yelping and when I checked him over his front right leg was a bit stiff, he didn't want to move it so much. I figured he must of pulled a muscle. I gave him some metacalm.
Saturday when he was still yelping now and again, I took him to the vets. You know when your little friends make liars of you, yep he didn't yelp once, she couldn't find anything wrong, she bent his head all ways, his legs, went up and down his spine, even the leg where there was resistance. She did it a few times, the only thing needed doing was his anal gland.
We took him for a little walk before we came home, he was quite normal. The thing is later on he was in a worse state than ever, hate seeing him in pain. Don't know if it was with getting pulled about or whatever he has is getting worse.
Anyhow I have not had much sleep, he is snoring away, so will have to see how he is when he wakes up. I hope it is just pulled muscles and nothing more serious.
Barney is four years old.
