Hi Guys,
Bruno has just turned 5, every time after off lead exercise or chasing his ball he is limping really badly and won't weight bear on his left hind leg. This last for a full day and then he seems to be ok, however it's getting more and more frequent. I'm taking him to the vets next Monday earliest appointment. Any idea what it maybe? Or what I could give him to help with the pain x

Definitely good idea to get it checked. Earlier the better, Herbie has had op on front leg for dysplasia and back leg for floating kneecap before 18 months, so you are doing the right thing, good luck and keep us posted!
