My dog was attacked, isn't walking, screams. Is she seriously hurt?

Question

My chipin mix just got attacked by 2 bigger dogs. We don't see any cuts but she isn't walking and if her back legs or butt are touched she screams. Is she just in shock or do we need to worry? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 9 lbs

She is most likely in shock but probably in pain as well. You should take her to the vet right away so they can rule out any serious injury, she will need an antibiotics course even if no obvious wounds are seen.
