Hi, My pup is 8 months old. He is a Pit Bull and decided this morning to jump off the steps in his attempt to chase a squirrel. He is now limping and favoring one paw which he has been intermittently placing weight on and then pulls it back up. Any suggestions?

Reply to Olivers Mom's Post: Hi Oliver's Mom - no swelling which is why I did not try to find an emergency vet. His behavior is pretty good, he is eating and drinking but naturally doesn't want to go out to the bathroom unless he absolutely has to.
