Dr. Vet Bang, need deer dog help!

Dr. Bang, maybe you can help me out with a question on my chocolate lab archery deer dog (had to keep it in the subject[;)]). The last two maybe three weeks he has been limping, but only after he runs hard. He can run around all evening in the yard playing normal, but if he takes off out through the field and runs hard then after he lays awhile he can barely stand on his right rear leg. Give him a few hours and alls better again with no limp at all. I swear I think sometimes he is only doing it for attention because my wife really babies him when he limps, but he does it after he runs hard then lays down for a while. Last night he ran around while I rode the 4-wheeler, never limped until we got back to the house and he had been laying on the floor for an hour then he got up and couldn't stand on his right rear leg. [?] thoughts, should we just trade him in? [:D]

Again my work is mainly with parasites. I'm no Dr. I just work with them. I'm the just the lab director, I couldn't afford the school to be a dr. [V]. However if you give me a little time I will show your post to a small animal Dr. and see what he thinks. I am actually off work tomorrow so it may be Monday if thats ok. If you need an answer ASAP I can call him. If I were to guess I would say it is something that will pass. He is still fairly young right? I will get you the best answers I can from one of the top Docs though.
Why do they make it taste so good and put it in them little bitty cans- Dad
Gun bans have never accomplished anything, other than to create a safe working environment for criminals.
good luck.

but anyway... remember the last time you sprained something? Hopefully thats all it is, and that can take several weeks.
its all about pucks and bucks
gagirl, I will try to stop kicking him, that might work, but I can't tell how much self control I'll have. [:D][:D] That crazy dog would probably knock my a$% out if I kicked him. [:D]
