I’m sorry to hear this is going on with Buddy. I would recommend having him checked out by your vet because several different things could be going on and causing his pain. Your vet may want to run labs and may want to do X-rays as well. If you want to post another question with some more information regarding Buddy’s exact behavior we may be able to help you further. Best of luck. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
