Think she tweaked her ankle
Looking for some advice. This is Lyra, she's a 3 year old sheepadoodle who's been running with me since she was 18 months old. Like the title says I believe she tweaked something last night during a run. We had just started our run and I was on the sidewalk while she was running on the gravel by the side. Her area was ending so she had to hop back onto the sidewalk with me. As she did she let out a yelp and immediately started to keep her front left paw off the ground. I immediately stopped and checked her over wondering if she had cut herself but I couldn't find anything. She seemed like she wanted to go again so I started to jog with her for another couple hundred meters and she was falling behind me and a lot slower than her norm. I again stopped and checked her over but decided to give up on the run just in case. We walked back to the vehicle and she seemed normal. I decided to jog with her the last minute a about half pace and see what she was like and she was completely normal. All this to say that I think she may have twisted her ankle coming from the gravel to the sidewalk and I'm wondering what I should do. This was ~18 hours ago and she has seemed completely fine since. She's jumped up on the bed and walked around the house with no issue and no complaints. I know I've lightly twisted my ankle and walked it off and felt better shortly after which is what this seems to be. Are dogs the same as us for this? Should I give her a few days off jogging? Hoping someone has some experience or good advice. Thanks!
