My dog jumped in hot bath. Why is he weak, shivering, and limping?

I'd worry that Hugo may have aspirated water during the bath. It's also possible that the bath was unrelated and that he ingested something, or that he has a neurologic problem. I'd recommend seeing a veterinarian as soon as possible for an exam and blood work, and potentially x-rays as well.

I am sorry Pretty is not feeling well. My biggest concern would be that Pretty possibly injured her ACL or meniscus in her knee. I would recommend limiting her exercise and keeping her calm. However if she is not feeling well I would take her to a vet for a good physical exam and possible x-ray. Dogs can break a bone, tear ligaments, and have soft tissue injury which can cause limping. I hope Pretty feels better soon

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Mac. It sounds like he hurt himself somehow today. Keep him very quiet tonight to allow him to rest. If he is still limping tomorrow morning, he will need to see his veterinarian. He may require x-rays of the injured limb. Hopefully he just has a soft tissue injury such as a strain or sprain, but he could have wound somewhere or bone injury. Encourage him to eat and drink so that he does not become dehydrated. Do not give any over-the-counter pain medication as these can be toxic to dogs. I hope this information helps!

Restrict activity for the next 24 hours. Monitor for lethargy, swelling, bruising or increasing lameness. If the lameness persists beyond 24 hours, have her physically examined by your veterinarian. X-rays may be indicated after the exam.

Poor Piper! She may have injured her back while playing and slipping in the tub. If she is still having a difficult time walking then she should be examined by a vet for treatment. She may need an anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxer, and/or pain medication.

He needs to be examined by a vet to determine the extent of the injury. Your vet can take an x-ray to help diagnose and then determine the best way to treat. He may need a splint, rest, and an anti-inflammatory to treat. It is impossible to know the best way to treat without an x-ray.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is not a common occurrence if it is just temporary for a few hours after taking a bath. There is a variety of neurologic conditions such as a myelopathy that may cause this though it is not typically temporary and does not necessarily improve on its own within a matter of hours. I recommend that you have Freddy evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment as necessary. I think the main thing is trying to figure out what is going on exactly which further history and a physical exam would help with. Good luck!
