fred watch!

i was watching fred yesterday in the garden and i noticed he was limping on his back left leg slightly, as the evening went on it got worse, and then it scraped slightly on one occasion when he was running and then he would hold it up .... i got him to lie down so i could move it about and he seemed fine with that, but just before i took him back in the house he growled as he trotted along, so it must have hurt him then

i made him calm down so then he was made to lie down in the house and chill out... we went to bed early and he didnt move all night :2431: and this morning he seems to be okay *touch wood*

i have noticed before that his leg (not sure which one, i think its a front one) clicks very loudly.. when he had his last check up( few weeks ago) i mentioned it to the vet and he said it was nothing to worry about it doesnt do it all the time but when it does its very loud!

im going to be keeping a very close eye on him

BB has a clicky back leg when he walks
I took him to the vets, couldn't find anything wrong with it, vet wasn't overly concerned as there was no swelling, lameness etc.. this was a couple of years ago, BB still clicks when he walks It's never bothered him though

really :2431:

thats okay then lynne.... i was beginning to think the worse especially when he was limping last night....

i bet he was laughing at me when i was helping him onto my bed

he keeps nuzzling at his backend today.... dont know if thats co-incidental or not

I don't know hun

Bryn used to click-clock-click-clock when he was young, the vet said not to worry about it, but I haven't heard him click-clock for ages now

the vet told me it was nothing to worry about either sange, but i worry cos ive been watching him closely today, even though he hasnt been limping, when he gets up from lying down, hes a little stiff on his back legs .... i'll keep an eye an eye on him and mention it at his next check up, i darent take him before hand, i think theyve already got me noted down as an over protective owner from when he was a pup, i was always taking him :2431:

It's hard isn't it, they either think you worry to much or don't care

... im not as bad now lol... but i worried loads with fred, he cost me a fortune, its taking me all my time not to be the same with daisy
