My puppy jumped off the couch and now her paw shakes. Is this normal?

Question

My two-month-old puppy jumped off the couch Yesterday at first she seem to be in a little pain but now she is working on eating and drinking normally but whenever she sets her left paw shakes a little bit. Is this normal? Should I be worried? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 2 months and 3 days old | 8.7 lbs

HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Mooska! If she is now bearing full weight, is eating and drinking hopefully she just sprained or strained that left paw. The shaking could be some residual discomfort. I would rest her for several days (no running, jumping, playing rough) and see if the shaking stops. If it persists I'd have your Vet take a look. I hope this helps and I wish Mooska a speedy recovery!
