Dog limping after jumping on owner
About a week ago when I came home from work I let my dog (2yo female neutered German Shepherd) Sophie out of her kennel and she jumped up on me(as she always does)to greet me and her right foot was caught in my sweater for just a few seconds. Later on in the day I noticed she was favoring that foot or leg. She doesn’t whine or yelp like she has pain, but she has been limping for a week now. What could she have done to her leg? A sprain maybe? I touch up and down from shoulder to foot and it doesn’t seem to bother her. Please help me. She wants to play with my other German Shepherd and I don’t know what to do or what is wrong.Thanks for your time.

Dog eating Starburst candy
I know this sounds like a weird question but will Starburst candy hurt a bassett hound? She’s a 1yo female neutered Bassett.

Dog with swelling on right front thigh
My 8yo male neutered Labrador mix has a swelling of the right front thigh –inside muscle—- for approx. 1 week. We thought it was a sprain initially but it seems to still be there? I’ve been treating it with aleeve and itseems to reduce the swelling, but not completely. He gets light to moderate walking exercise daily and is on a good diet. He was in obvious pain last night, again I treated him with aleeve and he eventually fell asleep. What do you think is wrong with him?
