I have a 2yr old pit.. While i was gone today she did something to hurt herself... She doesnt wanna stand up, and when she does her back legs give out.. She will walk a little ways and then kinda fall down and lay there.. She is in a panel pen that she always trys to climb out of. I think she either tried to climb up the fence and fell down and land wrong on her legs, or maybe she could have overheated, but she had water.. I just dont know wat could have happened.. I need some advice on what to do and what yall think could have happened..

Sure sounds like overheated symptoms from what you say. You wouldn't think so though just hangin out in the pen. Good luck, I hope she gets better..
Thank you but she does not act drunk or dizzy or anything...? |

She could have tweeked a nerve or something or may possibly have overheated, give her gatorade or 7 up and that will help if she is dehydrated from over heating and then if that doesnt help I would say take her to the vet she may have hurt her spine...  I hope she gets better soon |

As long as you keep food and water near her I would think so if she just hurt her back or spine.... Is she in the house or in the pen, I would move her where she can stay cool since she cant move herself andthen make sure she can get to water but I wouldnt wait too long to take her, if you can afford to you should probably take her tomorrow

Good luck, I hope she gets better soon, this may soud dumb but has she been bitten by a racoon very recently? Sometimes you can run across one that has a disease it carry, most people call it coon dog paralysis, it will paralize your dog and unless you can catch it fast they can die
