I am in need of assistance with Sassy's limping on her front leg. I have taken her to the vet who felt all over her leg, moved it all around, etc and said he did not find anything out of proportion and she did not yelp (I have NEVER heard her yelp) or try to pull away from him so he is thinking she has pulled a muscle. I am wondering if I should take her back and just ask him to x-ray her leg to be sure, or exactly what to do for her leg. She does not limp when she walks, only if she runs flat out (chasing birds and squirrels) or runs playing ball which is her most favorite thing in the world to do. The vet put her on a maintenance dose of Glucosamine chondroitin but that was it. I am not exactly sure he knows Corgis. He has a partner whom I very rarely see who is from England and she has seen Sassy on one occasion and seemed very knowledgeable about Corgis in general. I am wondering what exactly I should do for her leg that I am not doing as it does not seem to be getting any better and if she sleeps for a long period it appears to stiffen up but once she is up and walking she is fine. Should I ask the vet to do anything specific or give it more time. It has been about 10 days now since she started limping on it.
