QuestionHello, I have a 1 year old Golden Retriever / Yellow lab mix. She is very healthy, and happy. About 4 day's ago, I noticed My dog (Sasha) was limping on her left front paw. I messaged it, and she showed no signs of pain. Sasha was getting better, and was not limping any more, so I decided to take her to the dog park. I have made a mistake in taking her, because now she is limping even more. I try to keep her from jumping, and limit her running, but she is a very hyper, very active girl. Is there anything that I can give her to keep her calm, just long enough to let her paw fully heal? If you need anymore information, just ask. Thank you.
AnswerGlad I can help - Remember - only leash walking for now....
Hi Jared, To know for sure, you will need to see the Vet for x-rays. She may have a slight injury. I have many clients on NuVET and NuJoint to avoid leg injuries. Helps to strengthen and heal-

You will need 1 NuVET supplement per day
You will need 3-4 NuJoints per day
Also, leash walk this kid / Sorry no dog park for at least 3 weeks .
BEST of luck to you!
