If she just hurt her leg today, just baby it, she might have spranged it. That is pretty common in all dogs. If she is still limping in a couple of days I would take her to the vet. Unless she is in obvious pain, then I would take her sooner.

A cure? You don't even know what is wrong. And, no there is no magic cure. Please take you dog to the vet to find out what happened. There are many things that can go wrong from a sprain to a break. The treatment differs depending on what is wrong.

It depends on how she hurt her leg, sometimes she might recover her own in 1-2 days, but it is best to have your vet check. Chihuahuas's bone is probably not as strong than most other dogs, she could have broken bone if not being careful.

Take her to the vet just to make sure she'll be okay and that it's not a break. Also, don't give your dog any medication unless your vet recommends it. Good Luck.

That happened to my poodle before. Just make sure he/she is laying down. Dont let her/hhim walk to much. And if its not by better the next day you should take her to the doctor..

Ask the vet to see what you could do to help her.
