Puppy again

Hi, it's our puppy again....
She's a 6 month old doberman. She's very lively and very friendly, running around all day long, but doesn't want to get housetrained (i posted that before)
Anyways, with all her running and jumping and playing, she must have hurt herself no , as she is holding her left paw up all the time.
I have no idea what happened, but this puppy tend to have accidents alot. she fell of the porch 3 times. she fell of the stairs, when she stepped beside a step. she is so quick, that she knocks her head almost everywhere.. doorframes, cupboards.... she fells backover when she is sitting in her chair playing "beat me" with her front paws with me.

The remedy suggested by john didn't change much regarding the puddles on the floor she does.

er paw does not seem to hurt when i press all joints and it's not swollen, she just holds it up and doesn't use it while running. i examined under her toes and between as well as ellbow and shoulder joint. nothing to see..

I gave her arnica 2 days ago, nothing. I gave her bell-p yesterday, and rhus -t later - nothing again.

I read in a book yesterday: puppies that do not get housebroken and that are timid and hide themselves under the table when strangers come into the house. She's very timid towards strangers.... The remedy mentiones is bryta carb. ...slow development, and dwarfish chikdren... she was the smallest of the litter.

should i try it? i don't know, if that could deal with the injury, but the problem is, that her grandmother had an injury when she was a pup at the same leg in the (probably) same joint and she developped cancer there later so we had to put her down. it developed from the gland that's in the joint and that was wracked, of course we are afraid now, this story could repeat with the little dog....

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
How about taking her to the vet??


Just a suggestion.

John Stanton last decade
hiding from strangers ---does this apply to all types of strangers? male female alike? as well as young and old alike?
 
John Stanton last decade
Might be cancer. You never know. As you say her mother had it.









I'd take her to a vet thats qualified after 6 years at university to deal with just such a scenario.

I_lurve_dogs - are you sure there is nothing you could do to help this little pooch? Any 'special attention' that might just cheer it up and take its mind off its problems?

could this sperm guy shut up for a second? there is no hom. vet around here and i am certainly not taking it to an allopathic vet. what 's that guy supposed to do? give some ointment? do some cast? i can do that myslef and the pup is very well. it's happy just lame. do an x-ray? there's certainly nothing fractured and there's no swelling and we don't need painkiller. if you don't like hom, go elsewhere. end of discussion.

no changes after nux.

she's not hiding as suggested in the book, but she stays 3 feet of strangers coming to he door, her neck hair standing up, tail (as far as you see from the stump - as some %^%$#$ cropped it) straight up, but she's curious as well. she barks and growls but makes a long neck, as she's so curious. a few minutes later she's fine and wants to play. she's not scared of people, i think, she is just thinking that's something weired and new and is extra carefully. when people want to pet her, she goes or even jumps a step back but makes a long neck and sniffs. she barks more than growling.

puddles are made from playing, being excited (when i leave the house e.g. )after sleeping of course, so i have to take her out imediately after sleep or eating.Puddles also when somebody comes in the house , but then not immediately , but she makes a puddle after maybe 10 minutes. same when playing or excited. never immediately, but 10 minutes later. or after 10 min. of playing. she might interrupt play for urinating and then continue.

it's extreme up to 5-8 puddles a day.

she doesn't care what stranger, male female young old, that's all the same. she is very friendly after some time.


something else: i don't think it's nice to say: might be cancer... might be a heartattack, too. c'mon! you don't bring your car to the repairshop and think the engine is broken when it doesn't start but think of the battery first. this pup is extremely friendly, happy, sunny and very lifely. she is up and down . left and right all the day. i had pups before, less playful with injuries like that. there is no swelling - had that before. i am just mentioning that her grandmother developed cancer from a harmless injury like that. that's all, that's why i want it fixed asap.
That does not mean giving a painkiller, antiinflammatory and cast, as that won't help but cover up.

behavior to strangers is norm to the breed pup belongs---trained to watch/guard...its the warming up that may be considered an unwanted trait for the breeds domesticated purpose --but much welcomed by average family pet--so this characteristic is not to be too highly placed in finding remedy (unless something peculiar to breed and species were to occur)..

passing stool 4 times a day --still occuring as such? what are stool characteristics? pup house trained (concerning passing stool)?
 
John Stanton last decade
what can you say concerning pup's physical growth in respect to pup's age??
 
John Stanton last decade
She's almost as tall as her mother now as she is almost 7 months old. Her front legs seem to be a little too long for her and she is looking "funny" when she is sitting. Unfortunaltely I am not sure, how big the other pups of the litter are, as they are all sold months ago. Her mother isn't the tallest either. She is NOT too small I think. And she seems to have a little bit of a problem with her growing fast. Looks to me, like she needs to get used on her long legs still, as she trips over her own feet, or when you scratch her throat she bends the neck back , so you can reach it better, and then sort of looses balance and slides backward ending up lying on the back. When she was smaller, she often would fall, sitting up un her back legs or jumping op to something, so she stands just on the back legs. I've actually never seen a dog "Falling" - well this dog can?!!!!!
She also knocks her head constantly against something - i would tend to say, that's because she is so fast and never pays full attention to where she's running.

passing stool 4 times a day --still occuring as such? what are stool characteristics? pup house trained (concerning passing stool)?
 
John Stanton last decade
stool frequency still 4,5 times a day. looks good. dark brown, not too hard not too soft. and most times she 'drops' it at the same spot - in the house :-(
 
itsme last decade
single dose "only" phosphoricum acidum 30c

keep eye on her--make available access to outside-- so as to respond to immediate desire--til she gets some control..
 
John Stanton last decade
what is current status?
 
John Stanton last decade
nothing really new. still limping , still happy, still puddles on the floor, but her 'dumps' are getting closer to the front door now. unfortunatly still INSIDE the house, not outside.
 
itsme last decade
what treatments used so far?when?
 
John Stanton last decade
nothing besides arnica C30 10 days ago and a few days ago ph-ac.
 
itsme last decade
absolutely no change in any aspect after ph-ac?
 
John Stanton last decade
no, sorry, nothing besides that she dropped her 'dump' a little closer to the door she usually uses to go outside. before she did it at the front door and she is going into the yard through the backdoor, so that's where she 'dumped' her 'presents ' now.
maybe i should repeat the dose?
 
itsme last decade
oh my godness, i almost forgot!!!!!!

BEFORE i gave ph-ac, i gave her arn C30, which didn't help for the foot, then bell-p and the next afternoon, i gave her rhus-t.
then, i think 3 days later or something, i gave her phos-ac and doing so, i noticed a big pimple on her nose. i didnn't think much of it by then, as she had pimples when she was a few weeks old. we also have a lot of mosquitos here ... but the next day i examined her foot again and i saw, there is another zit between her toes. one is between the toes of the right and another one between the toes of the left front leg.
it's like herpes-pimples. watery, crystally, yellowish scurf on it. no pus, just lymph i'ld say.
how could i forget?????
 
itsme last decade
ever observe such pimples as this before at all as far as you can remember? any skin rash at all as this?
 
John Stanton last decade
