Hey everyone, I went to the doctor today and Spike torn his ACL(reason for the limping) but its a minor issue. He put 2 shots for the swelling and pain killers. It will take 3 weeks to heal so only short walks for now. The lumps he has on his leg was infected from scratching or rubbing it outside. He gave me some medication spray to take care of that right away.

Torn ACL sounds pretty serious, glad to hear Spike will be able to get by with rest and some medication. Did they tell you to keep him calm and not have him running or jumping while he was healing. I know [MENTION=4706]RaRett[/MENTION] 's Hershey just had surgery for something similar.
