I just about fell out of my chair when I saw this Gret. Yikes....makes my skin crawl. Unfortunately, yes, it is possible to need sedation to elicit the drawer sign. (That would be sedation for the dog, not you.) My ortho couldn't get one in Charleigh either time without knocking her out. Yes...leash walking only. If it IS her CCL, it's not straight line walking or even running so much that will do her in...it's jumping, twisting, anything that will put more torque on her knee. If she's torn her ligament, but the meniscus is still intact, you want to keep it that way. Like Diane said it could be her back too...just make her take it easy till you find out what's going on. Fingers, toes, paws crossed it's just soreness. Oh BTW, awesome link...hope it's OK I shared it with Orthodogs.
