don't try to figure it out yourself. if she seems like she is in pain and is limping, don't make her walk around on it more. take her to the vet!

It happen with my dog , he had a broken foot last year. Like us humans they also feel like they are sick. My dog does not like to eat anymore. I was worried because he just like to lay in one corner and sleep and never intend to eat or play with my other dog. He had a broken foot without me knowing until I raise him up and found out that he cannot stand because of his broken foot and then I rushed him to the vet.

like the others said. dont try to diagnose it yourself. just take her to the vet asap! if the groomer called that many times then there is something wrong. the whole "better safe than sorry" thing you know? besides...even if its not broken (i hope it isnt) something is causing a serious concern..even if its something like a burr or cut on the pads..at least having a vet look at her will define the problem and fix it. cause you dont want her to be in pain for any longer than is necessary. hope she's ok!
