She stumbling not standing long really weak not really able to use back legs laying down won't get up to use bathroom.
I'm truly sorry to hear about your dog's condition. The symptoms are quite concerning and could indicate a serious issue. There are several potential causes for these symptoms, including spinal cord problems, musculoskeletal disorders, or even neurological issues.
One common cause could be an intervertebral disc issue, where the disc compresses the spinal cord, leading to paralysis or weakness in the hind legs. Other possibilities include severe pain from an injury, an infection, or even a systemic illness affecting her overall strength and coordination.
Given the severity and the fact that these symptoms have been ongoing for three days, I strongly recommend seeking immediate veterinary care. Your dog may need diagnostic tests such as X-rays or an MRI to determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment. Delaying care could potentially worsen her condition.
In the meantime, try to keep her comfortable and minimize movement to avoid further injury. Ensure she has access to water and, if she’s willing to eat, offer her some easily digestible food. However, the most important step is to get her to a veterinarian as soon as possible for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
