Firstly, I dont think any of the posts here were rude, if you read them correctly they make sense. If i am not feeling 100% the last think I want to do is run, may the dog is feeling the same way.

I would mention to your vet what has happened, mention all things that may have changed in his life.

There are many reasons that a dog will not run, you dont want to find out why before its too late. Dogs are very strong and wont show they are in pain unless its MAJOR pain. In most cases of osteosarcoma you dont even know your dog has it UNTIL he/she starts to favour their leg and then mostly its too late. I am not saying your dog has osteosarcoma but I wouldn't rule anything out UNTIL you've taken your dog to the vet. Just because you cant see something isn't right doesn't mean that everything is okay. My dog was find, he was 8, i took him to the vet because he started to limp, he limped for 1 day. He was dx with osteosarcoma on 13/09/2002 (hubby's b'day) and was pts after a legbreak 4 months later 17/10/2002.

Please take the advice here that is given, its all given with good intentions and not to hurt you or make judgements on you.

Hope your dog is okay!
