Default Please help now!!!

My nine month old German Shepherd has a bad limp. He did something to his front right paw/leg. He has a vet appointment in two days. I need something to help his pain now!

Is baby Asprin ok, and how often? Any vitamins I can give them too.

At 9 months it could be pano, which is like growing pains. How long has he been limping, and why can't the vet see you for two days?

I'd skip the aspirin and try to get in to the vet sooner.
