Hi guys. We had a long night. Hemingway hurt himself, possibly while trying to pull himself up onto our stone wall to get to a neighbor's dog. The trouble is, we have NO idea WHERE he could be hurt. But we know he is because when he lies down, or tries to get up, he lets out a yelp....every time. And he couldn't get comfortable all night....so of course he kept getting up and down and letting out a sharp "ouch!" every time. He is walking fine- without a limp. Touching different parts of him gives no answers either. He does not seem to be favoring anything. Is pooping and peeing normal. But he gets down very slowly and with a lot of hesitation, and then inevitably cries out in pain.
I am one to rush to the vet or call the vet in a heartbeat....but with such few clues as to what is going on, I'm not sure my vet would provide me any answers. And our vet is notoriously expensive...and loose with "let's try this and give him this" without telling me it's going to cost hundreds of dollars.
I know I am not giving much...but this is all I have to work with. Any thoughts?
