Chhaya pulled a muscle
Last evening while out in the forest Chhaya got startled by a bird, jumped, twisted her body and pulled a muscle in one of her back legs. She yelped once, loud.
I almost had a heart attack when I heard that yelp and I called her name. She came towards me limping and dragging that leg, looking miserable.
I grabbed her and hugged her and she just shivered for a while, I got her to lay down on a blanket.
After a while, she got up and staggered around a little and went to pee. Later at home, she wanted to play.
She is slightly uncomfortable, can't find a comfortable position to stay in for a longer period of time but she is ok.
A pulled muscle, unless it's a injured ACL (CCL), needs rest for abut two weeks, so Chhaya is going to take it easy for a while, whether she wants it or not.
That was very scary!
Now Chhaya is on the couch with me, head on my lap, not 100% happy but ok.
LOVE HER!
XOXO
