When she gets excited it will stand up and wag but only when i get her extremely wired up. She can feel all the way down it so its not numb, just swollen and limp. It hurts her for sure bc when you try and touch it she tucks it but doesnt hurt bad enough to where she will scream when you grab it.

Any ideas? If someone can shed some advice that would keep me out of the vet's expensive company it would be much appreciated, but if it aint better by tomorrow ima bite the bullet and bring her.

i see you live in baton rouge bring it to azalea lake vet clinic on jefferson between antioch and tigerbend . my wife works up there they are great and inexpensivw

Ok guys, just got out of class. Doc says it's broken still a mystery of how it happened but we know what it is atleast. Told me there isn't anything to do other than give her meds for the pain and swelling. Said it will heal it's self, still hurts her but it will hopefully heal straight.
