Hi torscrump,

Can you move up your appt? Why do they make him wait that long?
He already has been in pain for 2 days, right? I would take him right away!

Appointment Saturday is for last set of vaccinations. She is better today thankfully, no yelping, just lots of "shuffling around" while going. Thanks

Hey torscrump,

If she's howling while going, and its not coming out with straining or hard as rocks, it could be something internal - inflammation, a tear, etc. Your best bet is your vet, be sure to mention the problem during your vaccs appointment. Its good that she seemed better, but if she goes downhill you might try to get her in as soon as possible, instead of waiting for her scheduled appointment. Hopefully its nothing major
