She is an 8 week old basset and she fell going down the stairs on our porch. She doesn’t seem to be in any pain, but she holds her head to left all of the time and she doesn’t have much control over her back left leg. The vet said to keep her in a crate for a month and give her an anti-inflammatory. If that doesn’t work she will need surgery. I can’t afford the surgery (between 2,000 and 4,000 dollars), does anyone else have any suggestions?
Yes, she can still wag her tail. She gets around ok, but she falls a lot. The surgery that was recommended would basically be putting pins and screws in her neck to straighten it out.

my basset hurt his back jumping out of the tub. he was fine for a few days then he started walking kind of drunk in the back part of his legs. i took him to vet and put him on muscle rex. and pain pills and predsoine. he could walk then all of a sudden he is dragging his feet behind him. he cannot walk. he is in good spirits and eats, drinks water and pulls himself outhside for the bathroom and he is doing all that ok. i do not know what to do. he is happy wags his tail and flaps his ears. please help with any answer. ….regards dian e hall and toby joe hall
