About 4 months ago, my husky/lab mix jumped off of some steps onto a patch of ice and completely wiped out. She limped severely for days. I wanted to take her to the vet; however, my husband felt like she just strained something as she didn't seem to be in pain and was eating normal etc...
It really hasn't gotten better. Some days she doesn't limp at all and will run and run. But the next day she pays for it and will limp for a week.
I did take her to the vet and she confirmed that it was her hip and not a knee injury and put her on a regimine of Glouc/Chron. I'm sure this is helping somewhat, but as soon as she starts regaining mobility she goes and hurts herself.
I don't know what to do... when she says away from running and playing she seems to start healing. But she's so energetic and always wants to play and it just keeps hurting her.
Please help!
