My puppy got trapped under garage door. Is he injured or okay?

Question

My puppy got trapped under the garage door foor a few seconds. I immediatley pushed the button to release him. He was walking normally immediatley after. Is eating and drinking ok, pooping an peeing normally. He also doesnt whine if i touch his behins or hind legs but im still worried. I dont have the money to take him to the ER and pay for xrays especiallt since he seems ok? Thoughts???

It definitely doesn't appear to be an emergency, so no need for an expensive vet visit. If he's not sensitive to touch or limping and is acting normal, then it's likely that he was not badly injured. I would also check for any cuts or swelling. If you don't see any of these signs of injury, then I would not be concerned and would not recommend any special treatment. If you do happen to notice a sign of injury, then it would be best to have him seen by a vet, but can likely wait for the daytime vet to be open. Puppies are actually more pliable, so it's not suprising that he got through this OK. I hope that helps and Bentley gets better soon.
