I think its pretty low chances pf infection in dogs but I know they can get tetanus? Maybe she got it from the wire when it cut her? Not sure but might be something to test for. Hope she gets feeling better soon.

Thanks me too. When I bring her in, I will have them run the different tests to rule things out

Got xrays back and nothing broken but the radiology report did show some signs of arthritis and she mentioned bringing her to WSU where they do some type of surgery where they complete small muscle cuts or something along those lines to help loosen the muscles. It was my old man that talked to the gal but that is what he told me. Any thoughts?

Vandeman - I will second Dr Akers office in Sun Valley ID, I just made the drive 2 weeks ago from Blaine WA and 100% happy  I did for my 8 year old Golden. I saved thousands over getting the work done in WA for one and Its a really nice clean spot. AmericInn in Hailey also gives discounts for the Vet so many people travel through there.
