Vets just phone picking her up at 3 , one of her vertibrats has collapse and a wee crack at the tip of it there's nothing neorlogical damage and if the refers her to a specialist they probably not do

No mate they work in completely different ways.

Wouldnt be hanging and swinging nothing until you know if any spinal fluid is leaking or any nerves are trapped. Ring Paul Evans Vet his number is pinned on here he will guide you on the phone what is

old flash had the same the other week. two vertebrae in his neck had collapsed into his spine causing paralysis, i made the decision to let him go.

Had two discs compressed in the neck of my pure dog when he was 13 months old , walking like a crab and stiff as a poker had him scanned by Paul Evans to confirm the injury . Took me 9 months but got him back running never had a problem since may be arthritus when older but its a wait and see.

Same as DB with my old dog about 5 years ago. We took a chance and it paid off, for a few years till the next trauma.

Thing is, at that time the vet in North Wales was the cheapest around but sadly he's retired and if the same happened i'd be stung for thousands on 'a chance', so for me it'd be no chance and i'd call it quits right there...

Our little merle whippet ran in to a teathering spike some shit house left in the field from getting there horses moved.the poor dog ran in to that hard he knocked 4 joints out in his back,trapped a nerve under one of them nocked his hip out and streched his tendent in his back left leg.he couldnt even stand up for 3 days he never winged or anything.the bone man put everything back into place as said he can run again but his tendent will give him crap in a couple of years as it couldnt be fixed.he walk like a puppet on a string on his back legs but can still shift so we have layed him off work.the good thing is your dog is moving mate by the sounds of it she has took a very hard knock as if she was paralysed she wouldnt of been able to move.good long rest now mate through the summer and she will do you proud again in the season atb.

good to hear mate, she would be off all her legs in it had slipped into the nerves, that is what happened to flash, he was unable to even stand within hours. the feet also knuckle under and the neck is like its shrugged.

not nice I was thinking the worst when you mentioned it earlier I was choked up ?, the vertebrate is closer to the one next to it which could be dodgy , but it does look like it needs clicked up just ?
