NO Ibuprofen! Just buffered aspirin. Can you get your hands on some? My Cody suffers from hip dysplasia and the occasional aspirin does wonders when she's especially bad. She jumped down off the truck the other day and yelped so loudly, could hardly walk to the door She could barely get down without wincing After an aspirin and night's rest, she was fine the next day. Check to make sure she doesn't have anything stuck in her paw, or a cut that might be hurting. Can you figure out just where the pain is coming from? Upper leg, hip, paw? She probably strained a muscle and with some rest, will be just fine. Keep her quiet and let her rest and if you can, give her that aspirin. But I know how frightened you must be. Hopefully if she's not better by the end of the weekend, your family will reconsider taking her in; I hope so. We'll all be praying for your dear Abby. Wish we could give you a ride to the vets! Get well soon Abby!!!
