Has too much time on their hands
Dog keeps foot up.
Was out with my dog.. Just letting her play. She wasnt going to crazy.. And seemed.fine outside.. A few hours later j noticed she won't put her one back foot down. She doesn't seem to be in pain as she's walking all over the house. Also when I picked her up to check her paw for wounds she didn't seem to show any pain when I moved her legs. Suggestions as to what I should check?

many possibilities. .... thorn , ice cut, muscle pull , torn nail, etc...... I wouldn't be concerned unless it lasts more than 2 days.....just the way I handle it.
( I use a magnifying glass for closes examinations of the foot.)

Could still just be a muscle pull. I don't want to jump to what I'm dealing with , with my dog. ( See TPLO thread.) I'm not a vet, but I'd wait two days to see how it is. Dog should be at rest though - not running around/ playing.

LOL No. Made two mistakes last week. Used polysporin on a dog's cut ear. Vet said "no polysporin ! ". .. and the other one is too embarrassing to report.

I didn't listen very carefully. Something about Neosporin being in it that upsets a dog's stomach when it licks it - then it has pain and an upset stomach. Worse on cats.
