Does she seem to be improving..her limp..

Hard to say, but she is still limping when she walks. It seems like it's at the base of the foot since she is unable to set her foot completely down instead has it on her toes yet when picked up she is completely able to move her leg and close her foot. ( I have checked the boot of her foot and found nothing)

Havecu looked the pad over good for thorns, etc.? Mayb she's bruised her foot? It's good shes still eating...

Make sure the vitamins contain riboflavin (vitamin B2.) if it is an injury it can take a couple of weeks to improve. If it is a leg bone deformity, she may not be able to get around to get enough to eat and drink. I hope she can survive with a little extra help.
