Your dog tripped on ice and is limping in the front What do you do?

You should take a very careful look at the leg he is limping on and compare it to the other front leg. If there are obvious differences in the shape of the leg, you need to take your dog to a veterinarian - there is a major risk of a broken bone or dislocated joint. However, if you don't see any differences, you can try keeping an eye on your dog at home - minimize running and playing, keep your dog calm and see if the limping gets better over the next week. If it doesn't, you may still need to take your dog to a veterinarian.
