My dog has a broken leg and is shaking. Can I take her on walks?

Question

Hello Again, I want to thank you again for awnsering my questions during these difficult times! I wrote about my dog Annie, who has had a broken leg for the last 48 hours now, she has been whining a lot, but the main issue I have is that she keeps trying to go up stairs and she fails a lot and when she does this and fails she yelps out a loud sqeuak and then she starts shaking for the next 30 minutes or so. Can I take her on walks? How do I get the shaking to stop and why is it happening? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 2 years and 6 months old | 50 lbs

No, do not take Annie for a walk with a broken leg. She is needs to be on strict cage rest to help the leg heal. She is in a lot of pain and that will be causing the shaking. She needs pain medication from the vet to control her pain. Please take her into a vet now.
