Tauna, find my blog post, it has lots more info.<br />
To summarize, at our regular vet they took xrays and found out he has severe hip dysplasia. WE went to a specialist where it was suggested we do a femoral head ostectomy.<br />
Sid was scheduled for today, but we had to postpone to Tuesday.

So, Geri. How is Sid now? I hope all is well. I was hoping for an update already... LOL I'm so impatient. I just want him to be better NOW. Hugs and Corgi Kisses.

I googled Sidney's symptoms and those were the possible causes. Like for example, a site that I read said that ingesting poison could make a dog shake, cause dilated eyes, and limping. I don't know why the limping was included, but who knows? And getting spooked causes stress and can cause all 3 of the symptoms (supposedly).<br />
<br />
Anyway, I'm so sorry to hear of the diagnosis. :( I can't imagine how scary and heart-breaking it was last night when he displayed the symptoms. Sidney is such a good boy.…

We went to a corgi meet-up and then walked through the park. He didn't play particularly hard, and we're used to lots and lots of walking, so I doubt it was from Saturday's adventures. He could have caught a nail in the carpet and twisted his leg or something. We have an appointment very soon, so I'll hopefully have news and will pass it along.

Hope Sid is much better this morning!! From what you describe I can't imagine it would be as severe as an acl tear. I'm inclined to agree with Natalie. I can't quite remember but, didn't you guys have some kind of something that went on this past weekend??

It could be a torn ACL. If he isn't better today, I'd take him to the vet. They can't tell an ACL tear from an X-ray but can see fluid in the joint which can be a hint of an ACL tear. The need to sedate him and do a drawer test to see if the knee joint is loose. They can't tell without sedating him because he can hold his muscles tight enough to prevent the vet from finding the loose joint. He can tear the ACL by running, slipping on floors, twisting, playing, lots of ways. The vet telling you…

They can do lots of damage by just running.<br />

Hope he is A-ok today but if he's not, I think a vet visit is in order.
