Stroke?

Post by imagine1701 »

Noticed my 10 yr old female beagle is staggering a bit and left front paw seems limp. no other signs are outwardly available except lump at left shoulder. Just noticed 6/7 evening. What is it?

She had been in a scuffle with another female I own. Our vet checked her thoroughly and believes she tore a muscle in the fracus. It could also be disc disease. The steroids and muscle relaxers she's taking seem to have done the trick.
