I got a real scare tonight - Abby ( my redhead girl) legs went out on her.
When she first showed up at my friends last summer her back legs were very stiff and we thought maybe she had been hit or her legs tied up. Everything has been fine since we took her in last Aug. until one night last month she came in and all of sudden she lost control of her 2 front legs for about 1 min. I thought she must have hurt them when she was outside playing. Tonight she was sleeping and went out the doggie door and I looked and here she couldn't lift any of her legs! It was like she didn't have any strength in them - she looked so scared but, didn't seem to be in any pain. I called my neighbor to help me lift her in the house and by the time he got here she was just fine again.
Anybody have this happen or heard of this type of thing before? I will call my vet in the am to see what we need to do. This does not sound good to me .
also, I have never thought that Abby sits right - she sits more like a puppy would (legs kind of flopped out to the sides).
