Yep, Jake not Shelby. I swear that little girl is so sturdy and strong compared to Jake.
Yesterday he went to jump up on our two foot wall...and missed. I didn't see what happened but saw him miss the wall and crash back. He seemed okay and I left the house for a few hours. When I got hom he didn't get off the couch to come greet me, yelped jumping up on the bed, didn't want a beef chew at lunch ( I knew something was really wrong then), yelped in my lap and just kind of hung around me all day. He ate dinner fine and just kind of laid around. Went into his crate at 8:00 and laid down (bedtime is normally 9:00) and was in for the night. This morning hubby carried him into the bedroom and he immediately snuggled up into my side. Normally he would be licking me to get me to get up and give him a treat.
Now, I'm just keeping an eye on him. I'm assuming he hurt himself when he missed the wall. I've examined and manipulated his legs but can't find where he's hurt.
So....for those of you who feel like you are overreactive....you ain't got nothing on me! Honestly....a few weeks ago it was panic attacks and now this. My boys wears me out. I had called the vet's office yesterday but once he perked up for dinner I cancelled. I'm going to call this a.m. and see if there's something I should be giving him (anti-inflammatory or something) or just watch him.
This kind of thing never happens on a Monday morning when I know the vet's office will be open all week. But, better than on a Saturday night!!
