Why is My Dog Limping? Identifying Pain and Joint Trauma

A sudden limp, favoring a leg, or visible shaking can indicate an acute injury, such as a ligament tear, joint sprain, or fracture. Dogs naturally try to mask pain, so visible limping means their discomfort is significant. Whether your dog took a hard fall or shows signs of joint pain, Town & Country Animal Hospital utilizes digital X-rays and comprehensive physical evaluations to evaluate the tissue or bone injury and formulate a treatment or surgical path forward.
