Sounds like she got hit by a car.

nope...no possibility of that at all. She probably hurt her neck playing too hard.

I know a lot of ppl want to be loyal to their vet but I truly think the other option you should explore is...a different vet.

I basically went through this type of thing with a dog almost 30 yrs. ago. It did not turn out well.

I hope all goes well for you and your dog.

If this is obviously a spinal injury of some sort (which it is now clear that it is based on her latest symptoms) I am not sure why you say we need a different vet? Steroid to reduce inflation is a very common and successful treatment for this kind of injury.

I just thought a second opinion was in order.

My girl was started on steriods as well. If I had insisted the vet take x-rays at the time her outcome may have been different.

I'm glad she is doing better now.
