Amber is poorly :0((

Amber our patterdale is 12 years old now
we,ve had her since she was 8 weeks old

this morning i got up to let them all in the garden and Amber wouldn,t get out her bed
after a bit of encouragement she got up but seems to be non weigh bearing on her back right leg

brought her in the lounge and checked her over
can,t see anything

rang the vet but they said it isn,t serious and can wait till the morning

she is now curled up on a blanket in the corner when she seems abit more settled

i hope it is nothing serious as i know Amber is getting on now
she just don,t seem her usual self

Poor Amber, how worrying for you. Hopefully she is just having an off day. At least the vet didn't think it was too serious.
Thinking of you.

Poor Amber I hope it's nothing serious.

Satan struggles to get up most mornings, he has arthritus...but after he's been up for a while he's fine.

{{{hugs}}} to you & Amber x

Hi Jackie as it is only one leg (as opposed to both as can happen with elderly dogs) it may be something simple like a pulled muscle.

Maybe if Amber has a nice hot water bottle to cuddle up to too and sleeps she may be a bit better in the morning

(Amber isn't really that old Amy is 16 next birthday )
