Sweep - Back legs (crouches, yelps when back legs touched?)

In my previous thread I mentioned about Sweeps weight loss which is a worry and we are seeing the Vet on Monday(before his holiday)
Yesterday I noticed Sweep have a bit of dried P** on him so I thought I had better get that off, I ran my hand down and over his hip area and he did something weird, yelped, he lifted his tail as if he were going to P** them he started to crouch down..............any ideas. I have tried to feel for any lumps but he does the same movement every time.:smt102
Have also noticed two small lumps on his face and one on his chest(he does have a few anyway)

A worry

No ideas Sweep sorry,but do hope Sweep is ok.Good luck at Vets on Monday keep us posted. xx

no ideas at all Sweep, sorry, wish I did. Let us know how you get on with the vet. Hope he's okay.

The crouching and yelp would indicate pain or the expectation of pain I would seek a veterinary opinion as to the cause sooner rather than later

Just took him on his usual walk around the Park and he walked fine, slow as normal, but fine.

I hope the vet visit goes well

Good luck with Sweep at the vet on Monday honey - let us know how you and he get on xx

Appointment at 11.00

He is still eating, p'ing & p'ing all as normal

Poor Sweep. Good luck with the Vets.

Poor Sweep Well my Cassie is fine out on a walk, but should I brush her on her rump or rear end she dips down or yelps sometimes. She is fine when on the Metacam, but unfortunately I ran out 3 days ago (waiting for a delivery from the internet coz it's half price) and I noticed she was doing it again whilst off the Metacam. She is very arthritic behind, so I would think Sweep might be the same? I can do whatever I like with my Cassie when she's on this Metacam though, but I really did notice it in the last couple of days with her, how she crouched down and yelped, just like you're describing. Maybe have a word with your vet and ask him if he thinks he might be arthritic and in need something for the pain.
