Thanks Margot, we'll see what happens. Hopefully get somew answers on Monday :)
Well, you can try Aspirin, short term as it can have side effects.
5mg - 10 mg per lb of dog's weight. Coated is best and give with food.
You might want to call the Vet's office just to doubke check on this. Of course, it's Friday! Hope you don't need the ER.
I would just keep him quiet.
I've tried a couple times and couple of vets but no go, unless I want to go after hours at Emergency rates :)
He is a mixed breed, Shepherd, lab maybe some rotwiller about 9 years old.May try giving him some aspirin and watch him close.
Yes, dog is obviously in pain. You sure you can't plead your case and get in to the Vet sooner? What breed and what age is the dog? "could" be he pulled something, possibly arthritis? Just hard to say for sure. I would let him rest and no jumping, climbing stairs, running, etc.
