I have a question for the list. Smokey has once again hurt his leg. This is about the 4th time something like this has happened. I am worried that there may be something I (and my vet) are missing so here's the story:
Smokey is 1 year and has twisted his ankle, broken one of his toes, and now done something to his ankle again. It usually happens when we are on our off leash walks and he is running about. He has no other health problems and heals quickly after getting some anti-inflammatory medicine and some rest. What I am worried about is that something else (like a problem with hips or elbows) is causing him to be off balanced and making him get injured. Is this likely? How would I know what to do about this? Or maybe it is just clumisness as Smokey still grows into his body. Oh, he is about 27" and weights 120lbs. Any advise or references about where to look about this is greatly appreciated. Radha (and Smokey--now on houserest and unhappy about it!) __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
