My poor dog :(

[darcyvuqua]

Hope it all goes well for the dog. Mine had a similar problem and it turned out to be a ricked neck. Best wishes

With the neck how did he/she act as mine seems fine apart from the yelping and seeming to just want to stay in his crate!

It was the same with ours. She was a whippet and fortunately we were able to take to a racing dog specialist. I had to massage her a couple of times a day with some sort do embrocation. Like a heat treatment.

My wife has not been back that long my dog was laying in his bed and started to yelp he ran over to me???? This is weird because he usually seeks comfort in my wife so I climbed onto the floor to stroke and reassure him and he has yelped again and started shaking I'm so worried he has been to the vet so now I really do feel helpless my wife is currently looking into 24 hour services in cardiff

He is now back in his bed I have crawled over to him and he fell asleep while I was stroking him

Arrrrgggghhhhhhhh I don't know what to do he is obviously hurting somewhere and I just can't help him

Poor pup, hope he is ok.

I know Out in the Cold said check his paws but have you really looked? A thorn is difficult to spot..

He's been to the vet they checked his paws and his anal gland!

They checked his spine too

Maybe I'm just being to concerned

[darcyvuqua]

Ears and mouth was checked too

[Scarlet]

No, I would worry too. He's probably loving the attention.

[Nicos]

I also wonder if he may have pulled a small muscle near his spine as Danny also suggests?..that would give sudden spasms of pain

Poor doggie,hope he feels reassured with you being with him and whatever is upsetting him, sorts itself out, might be more obvious tomorrow what problem is.

Poor thing. Hope you all get some sleep tonight and that it's better in the morning.

You can get doggy herbal calm-you-down tablets, you know. Mum had some for her dog some years ago for her nerves at firework time (that's the dog, not mum). They were quite strong - first time she had a couple she was out for the count.

Just thinking that your dog panicking at the sharp pain probably isn't helping if it's muscular/nerve related, and some sort of sedative might be useful in this circumstance.

We have phoned a second vet who has said what were describing is quite common as it's only been happening after he was playing in the garden he's not a vocal dog so the yelping has really worried us but said the symptoms are not excessive he may have just twisted himself and to let him ride it out over night my wife just followed him around the garden and observed that he went to the toilet (both)

Hopefully he will be feeling better by tomorrow

[KittyColdNose]

Poor boy! I hope he is ok in the morning as the vet seems to think. I am guessing you might not get much sleep, they do worry us so.

[Feral007]

Hope your dog is ok soon. We've had a few similar things with our big dogs who are very active. They will sometimes have jumped off the deck or turned sharply and yelp. But after worrying a while they seem to come right on their own.
I cant get the horse chiro atm because there are so many horse and dog shows on the coast! So pulling muscles and bones out of place is not unheard of.

My dog seemed ok last night no yelping so thought he was ok until we let him out this morning yelping began he had a wee come back into his bed then half an hour ago. Yelp ran to me and was shaking like crazy!

I've been on the phone trying to get through to his OWN vet but it's busy my wife is in work so trying to get him book in for this afternoon hate seeing him like this
