questions on problem with my dogs back end - Page 1

i have a 15 month old mali that im working in schh i worked her today put her in the car stayed at club for about another hr then went home. when i took her out of the car she could barely stand with her back end it was like she could stand and then would lose strength she has to think relly hard about walking and walks very funny i had xrays done and we couldent see anything and going to a specalist monday she dosent seem to be in any pain just confused. im relly worried about her i think maby a pinched nerve in her back? shes usualy a jumpy crazy mali and ofcoarse is she is haveing trouble sitting down sometimes. just wanting to know if anyone has any ideas what this must be. please no rageing yes i did rush her to the vet no they didnt tell me anything i thought maby she dislocated her hip or something but im not sure. please dont bash on me for some silly reason just trying to find a answer.

I am just guessing of course, but I imagine you are right in thinking a pinched nerve.
Did the vet take x-rays?

I assume she didn't suffer a heat stroke while in the car waiting for you? One of the long-term results of heat exhaustion is ataxia and if there is brain damage it might be permanent.  In most areas of the US it's too hot to train outside any time of the day.

"i worked her today put her in the car stayed at club for about another hr then went home. "....was it hot in the car..

Sounds like heat exhaustion to me.

Im glad u all asume I dont care corectly for my dog. She was in full shade on a cooling mat and had access to water after 30 mins of exercise and she wasent panting.

That's good to know. You are probably dealing with some sort of nerve or muscle damage then.

Im ok with her having some muscle damage. It sucks but I would rather that nerve she seems to be doing better today better movement. We couldent see anything wrong on the xray. She is happyer today

You said she is usually a dog that jumps. Could she have had an FCE?
