Aww, lots of ((((((hugs)))))) for Ozzy and good luck for your vet visit on Tuesday. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks Steve
Thanks Frenchie

People on here are so kind, it is much appreciated.

Hey Frenchie, if you want to cheer me up, post a piccie of your gorgeous girlie for me, I love Frenchies!

lol

Only because I kept all the paperwork from Teagans operation!!

just going to say it sounds like t.
dogs can get problems from a young age,when ours go limp its down to growing pains they are usually given rimadyl.
i hope you can get to the bottom of it its not nice seeing him limp.

Whatever it turns out to be don't worry too much. Modern veterinary treatments can work wonders. Even though my dog got arthritis relatively young, as soon as he started on the medication it never ever troubled him again. Same for my old dog now: before medication she was so stiff one morning I thought she'd had a stroke because she couldn't stand, but within days of starting metacam she was her old self again and runs around like a puppy now (although I am still careful not to tire her too much in cold weather).

Apparently the snapped cruciate ligament causes clicking because without the ligament holding things in place, the bones can move over each other in a way they shouldn't normally, which causes the clicking.

Good luck with whatever it turns out to be. I'm sure the vet will sort it out, whatever it is.

I promise Ill try! I am worse than useless on the computer, but with the help of my daughter who is coming home next weekend I will be able to do it... shes a star on the computer, unlike her Mom I havent even worked out yet how to look up members photos. I would love to see some of Ozzy.. I love Rotties and had a beautiful boy called Max.

It must be horrible to see your dog limping and unable to enjoy himself
I hope the vet can give you answers and help him recover. Fingers crossed for you.

Sorry Anne-Marie, Ive only just seen this. How is Ozzy today?

Fingers crossed for you both... give him a big cuddle from me please. If he's bad.. don't worry about tomorrow

Thanks everyone

No, we will be there Amanda - we are just keeping him (or should I say trying to on bed rest!) It is hard as he is such an active devil!

He is lame today unfortunately but in good spirits, he will I am sure recover well and he is such a good lad poor thing, he just wants to run around like the pup he thinks he still is!

Here is a pic of him

So sorry to hear about Ozzy xx fingers crossed for him x
