If you suspect that your dog may have hurt his back, there are several signs to look out for. One common indicator is if your dog is showing signs of pain or discomfort when moving, such as limping, reluctance to jump or climb stairs, or a hunched back posture.
Other signs of a potential back injury in dogs include yelping or whining when touched in a specific area, changes in behavior such as increased aggression or withdrawal, and difficulty standing up or lying down.
It’s important to seek veterinary attention if you notice any of these symptoms in your dog. A professional evaluation can help determine the extent of the injury and provide appropriate treatment options to help your furry friend recover and alleviate any pain they may be experiencing.
