Gerry48 10 Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 Cheque the pups feet also gently put some pressure on the pups stomach and watch if it yelps, feel the leg muscles in case the pup has sprained one, if every thing is ok, kick his arse he's taking the piss. Quote Link to post

Cold Ethyl 63 Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 vet mate he may have sprained the neck or spine which isnt worth taking any risks over.Keep pup warm and comfy an old duvet folded up makes a decent bed and try make sure he keeps movement to a minimum id be doubtful hes doing it for nothing but if it was my pup hed be at the vets right now tbh Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Trapped nerve in neck? Get him to a good bone man (greyhound chiropractor: ask at your local track) Quote Link to post
adamb20 22 Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 il see what hes like tomorrow, he seems a bit better today. if still doing it tomorrow il take him to the vets, cheers. Quote Link to post
airbourne 128 Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 give him a warm bath and keep him in the warm for a day or two could be this cold weather, he might have pull a muscel. Quote Link to post
adamb20 22 Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 it doesnt seem to be getting much better, think he has strained his front legs or pulled a muscle. he seems very fragile for his age compared to my other pup..is this common in saluki hybrids? i am not used to saluki types or male dogs do they take longer to mature than collie types. any thing i can do or give him to comfort him and il get him to the vets tomorrow if need be.
