Pet's info: Dog | Bernese Mountain Dog | Male | neutered | 7 years and 11 months old | 85 lbs
Hi, my Bernese mountain dog is having trouble walking, he was running fine yesterday, but it was raining and when I returned home from work, he couldn’t work and it hurt him to. We felt his legs and the entire body and he seems fine, he doesn’t cry at all, it’s only when he walks, it’s almost like he’s lost the strength in one of his legs. His hind legs are already weak as he is older, but he was running fine for one second and the next he is hurt. We’ve been keeping him rested but are confused.
