My lab was 9 months old and she started limping around on her hind leg. I brushed it off for a few days and went to the vet after nothing improved. He almost had me convinced that she had broken her leg and would need surgery. THen i paid 70 bucks for an x-ray that showed nothing. some kind of growing pain caused her to limp, a simple shot fixed her right up.
It will scare the crap out of you when you dont know what it is and makes it even worse when the vet is negative and gets you to believe the worst.
