Its his back. Last time he did something and could barely walk. This time no where near as bad but I put pressure on his back and he let me know. They did an xray last time and about half way is two disc closer than all the others. Im sure its from jumping and putting his front legs up on things.

Doc gave him two shots, prednisone, and tramadol. Said to keep him confined as much as possible for two weeks. Needs to keep his back as still as possible. Sucks because I havent closed on the house yet so Im still living with family so he has to be outside at times.
