I inspected her a bit more. She is not putting weight on it at all, has it straight out to the side, and will not bend her "knee" on her own. Toes are very straight. I did look and feel all over her leg and hip area and there is no swelling. The knee will still bend if I bend it, and the hip joint moves as well. One day fine next day limping. She is also vibrating a bit, sign of pain??
