ness Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 (edited) I would still consider taking him to a chiro especially if you can find a good one. My older girl would have sudden episodes of lameness like your observed which would resolve but then the chiro would still find major spots which needed sorting. The guy I take them to uses acupuncture. I would also strongly suggest just because the dog no longer looks lame doesn't mean there still may not be something more to the problem. Muscle strains/sprains in humans don't recover super quickly. Like I said in the other thread in general (or was it this one can't remember) my younger girl injured herself 3 weeks ago. Went back yesterday as I was convinced something wasn't quite right - she hasn't been obviously lame but just wasn't moving perfectly. Well yep there was a problem which needed treatment and now its another fortnight of restricted activity (well no ball playing) or things of that nature. My thought is he is only young so better to be safe then sorry (like my girl) and act now rather than let them return to doing what they were doing before and risk permanent injury.
