Why dog fell off the bed and is limping. When I touch the leg she is not using she does not pull away or whimper. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 9 years and 9 months old | 8 lbs

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question. Poor pup. Limping means he is in pain. I recommend resting him for the next 48 hours. No running, jumping, or playing. Take him out to toilet on a leash, and bring him right back in when he's done. If he still appears painful after this time, then I would take him into the vet for an exam. The vet can diagnose where the pain is coming from, and can dictate a treatment plan for it. He may also benefit from some pain medications, which the vet can prescribe. Please do not give him any human pain medications, as many are toxic to dogs and can be fatal if given. I hope this helps!

Rest Toffee tonight. No running, jumping, or playing. Take him out to potty on his leash, and bring him right back in when he's done. If he is still limping in the morning, take him into the vet. Best of luck.

My dog fell off the bed and is limping. Is it serious if she's not whimpering?
