Our girl has a bum leg that doesn't seem to be getting better. 7 days ago we saw her limping badly. We suspect she slid on the ice while doing her morning fight ritual with her sister. She holds that leg up while she walks and doesn't use it at all for walking. She puts it down periodically when she stands, but not often. We've checked for infection, checked her hooves, checked for swelling, felt the leg for a break, and trimmed her hooves. We've given her aspirin periodically, but it's hard to get her to take it. We wrapped it 2 days ago and aren't seeing much difference. She's eating and her mood seems okay. Time to call a vet? We don't mind doing that, but based on what I've read, I'm thinking they might just tell us to wrap it and give her time.
I apologize if there's already a thread on this. I'm new to the site and had a hard time with the search feature.
Thanks in advance.
