Generally speaking, if a dog has weak hind legs, there will be the following reasons, including but not limited to bone hyperplasia, lumbar discs, joint brittlement, hip problems, bone fractures, dislocation, etc. If you find that your dog is weak at home, it is best to check it as soon as possible so as not to delay the time for medical treatment. The following are the common reasons for the weakness of the hind feet.
Bone hyperplasia and lumbar disc problems are the most common causes of dogs' hind feet. The key reason is that it is related to the dog's spine being under poor work pressure, including the owner's wrong hug. The owner hugs the dog's forelimbs with both hands, but does not support it with his hands, which puts the dog's spine under a lot of work pressure. It is very easy to cause spine injury to the dog for a long time!
In addition, dogs often go left and right indoor stairs, jump far and jump poorly, etc. In the early stage, there will be symptoms such as pain and inability to move. In severe cases, hemiplegia in the legs will lead to fecal incontinence. If there are similar situations, you must do a check to prevent malignant changes. Among all small dog breeds, dachshunds with longer spines are the most likely to occur.
The weakness of the hind legs will also be due to hip problems, which usually occur in medium and large dogs such as Husky and Golden Retriever. The symptoms include walking inconvenience, walking lameness and lameness, dislocation pain, hind feet weakness, muscle atrophy, etc. The key is related to genetic genetics. In addition, large dogs are too heavy to be pressed to the hip, or excessive exercise, and lack of calcium in the ingredients or poor nutritional content in feeding.
In addition, when dogs are too old, they are also very prone to rheumatism in the elderly, or muscle weakness throughout the body; for the three conditions on the left and right, you should also prevent jumping up and down, maintaining moderate rest, and preventing too much fitness exercise. Preventing too much fitness exercise does not mean completely not exercise, but you should also take your dog to have mild fitness exercises to facilitate post-rehabilitation treatment (such as walking cats and dogs, etc.). You can also give some red acetonin, chondroitin and other supplies under the sign of the pet doctor.
