I have a labrador named larffy. My bother gave it to me as a graduation gift. he love running, hopping and bitting things. His already 3 years old now. 4 months ago he suddenly couldn't move his back legs for no known reason. when he walk he just drag it along and after a week his back bones are already visible, has a skinny butt and a urinary incontinence. We can't figure out whats the problem because he was just staying inside our house, he eat a lot and on time and still jolly.

Have you tried taking Larffy to the vet? He might have some condition that only the experts can examine. I also have a dog, I mean dogs, and about two weeks ago she is limping. I found out that she fell on something that probably caused her to walk like that. I tried to observe first if she will be able to walk the next day. I always massage her legs and help her to stand using only her hind legs. Good thing that all my efforts make her walk in a normal way now. I just hate to see her not in a jolly condition. Hope Larffy will get better soon.

Are you feeding him dog food only? Some dog foods are not good, I heard. I suggest you bring your lab to the vet so he can get treated. I love labradors. They are really very charming dogs.

You should go see a vet, if you want to keep your dog. Ask what can he do about whatever he's got. Hopefully he doesn't need a surgery because it cost unless you have an insurance, but like I said go see a vet have it checked.
