So 2 years ago my dog injured a leg and was babied. After a while he started switching legs he was limping and would run when I wasn’t looking. Realized he was faking it, milking the love. It lasted a 2-3 days of faking it before he quit.
My dog just recently injured a back leg running thru the house. Was babied by me and the kids. He had one day no limping. The next day limping on a different leg (the front now,) and the following day he was limping on both the front and back just hopping around.
It’s winter here with deep snow, he hops mostly but stops and looks at me for a while before using all 4 legs in the deep parts. It’s been about 4 days since he I believe he started faking it. 4 days is a little long IMO to be faking it. No visible injuries and no discomfort when I message the “injured” legs. A little whine when I wobble his front wrist sometimes.
Going to call VET in AM but wondering y’all thoughts
