wobbly dog

Hi all,

Hope someone can help. I had my dog to the vet because he could hardly walk. His front legs would collapse and down he dould go. The vet gave me predsolone. It helped a few days then back to being wobbly. He doesn't seem to be in pain he just cant walk. THe vet said he probably pulled his back out. He just lays around and is so pitiful. Any help will be appreciated.
ksp

Has your vet recommended any other diagnostic tests? If he just says "he may have put his back out" but doesn't consider any other testing or diagnosis, it may be time to seek a second opinion. Until they find out exactly what's wrong with your dog, it'll be difficult for anyone to offer advice.

I hope your dog is better soon!
