Wanted - crossed fingers & mummy dust, please
last night after i put the laptop away & went to put my dogs down in the den for sleepy time; i found out my youngest (schipperke) couldn't stand or walk
she had been limping off & on for a few months, figured she might have arthritis and had been planning to call the vet for an appt this week (she had her hips certified by 2 different vets before we purchased her), hope it's not dysplasia.
called all the ER vet places last night in our metro area - none of them have an ortho on staff; so it was suggested i wait & try & get her into her own vet on Monday.
i'm very scared as to what's wrong; at least she doesn't seem to be in much pain if we don't move her. After reading the costs involved w/quick serach on the net, not sure if we'll be able to fund the care if hips do need replaced...think a used car

. Guess i'll find out tomorrow
