| Puppy needs to be kept quiet any ideas? Hi everyone I have beautiful 5 month old called Mia. A week ago she was at my parents playing with their two staffies when I noticed she had started to limp. I left it over night to see what would happen and it did not improve so I took her straight to her vet. They prescribed her with an Anti-inflammatory called Metacam. They also said to keep her quiet for two weeks, no walks no puppy school nothing.
It has now been a week with no improvements this is because the more bored she gets the more she tries to run. She has a room in which she sleeps which is about the size of a small bathroom and I found her in there with a toy going crazy throwing the toy from one end of the area to the other so keeping her confined doesnt work. if she goes outside to the toilet she bounds and leaps around.
I have just called the vet again and they have booked her in for another appointment for next tuesday that is a week away. I was hoping that someone may have some idea how to keep her as quiet as possiable untill then so it has time to heal as much as it can. I feel so mean when she comes up to me with a ball in her mouth wanting to play, she is a very social and smart puppy always playing with other dogs and I cant seem to work out a way to keep her quiet.
I thank you in advance for any help. |
