How to make Dog's leg strong?

Question

Recently my dog was having some infection at the throat and he stop eating and he was very weak due to this his legs become so weak
now he is trying to get up of his own but cant.
Can u help how to make his leg stronger so that he can walk himself?

He is not eating himself n im using syringe to feed him oatmeal mix with milk bcoz that was the vet's advice according to him that no rice or meat for him so i blending the oats n milk make it liquid n feeding him.is that any vitamins which can help him.

Answer 1

Is he otherwise healthy? Is he eating properly again?

I think you really need to ask a vet, but his own efforts to get up will be helping those legs regain strength. He might be a bit stiff and so so some *very* gentle help to move the leg while he is lying down should help restore some flexibility and proper blood flow. You could do this often if you were sure there was no injury (and only a vet can tell you this).

When he is able to get up, don't walk him. Let him walk around the house and garden on his own terms for a week or so first.

Answer 2

You should definitely take your dog to your vet about this question. A trained veterinarian can give a much better answer that is specific to your case than a number of random people behind computer screens.

Answer 3

I agree with the others, if you have already seen your vet because of this and his/her advice didn't help. Maybe you should try by massaging his legs.

Answer 4

u need to take him 2 the vet immediately

Answer 5

I think you should bring him to the vet. Ask the vet what can she/he do to help your dog

Answer 6

if you have access to a swiming pool try swiming the dog. for a short time each day.
