If you notice your dog walking funny all of a sudden (wobbly, dragging feet, feet knuckling over, arched back), bring them to the vets. Quinn went to bed fine, and woke up like this. Thanks to guidance from my amazing vet tech I brought her into emerg and she has an issue with the vertebrae in her spine (IVDD). Nerves aren’t signalling properly and she doesn’t have total control or awareness of her back legs and feet. She’s in for many, many weeks of serious crate rest and meds to heal her spine and hopefully will get back to normal (or what will be a new normal, I’m not sure). I might post a little bit about hers and my experience with this, I know I’ve had a client or two who have dealt with it before. This happened Sunday of last week (May 3rd)
