Expert Injury Care at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton
If your dog or cat is limping, favoring a limb, or suddenly avoiding stairs and walks, it may be a sign of injury or discomfort. At the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, we specialize in limping cat & dog evaluation and pet injury vet services to identify the cause and provide effective, affordable treatment.
Whether your dog is living with diabetes or your cat is managing thyroid disease, our veterinary team provides experienced care focused on improving your pet’s comfort, health, and quality of life.
Why Is Your Pet Limping?
Whether your pet has slipped on stairs, played too hard, or is experiencing age-related wear and tear, there are many possible causes for limping and pain:
- Sprains or strains
- Arthritis or joint degeneration
- Torn ligaments or soft tissue injuries
- Broken bones or fractures
- Foreign objects in the paw
Getting a proper diagnosis quickly can prevent further damage and speed up healing.
Advanced Diagnostics & Compassionate Injury Care
Our team is highly experienced in cat and dog injuries and uses a combination of hands-on physical exams, digital X-rays, and in-house lab testing to pinpoint the issue. We assess for swelling, pain response, joint stability, and range of motion to develop a clear picture of your pet’s condition.
Cat & Small Pet Injury Support
For smaller pets, our pet injury vet services are tailored to their specific needs using gentle, low-stress handling techniques. We understand how to make even the most nervous pets feel secure while getting the care they need.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Once we’ve diagnosed the issue, we’ll develop a custom treatment plan that may include:
- Rest and restricted activity
- Anti-inflammatory or pain relief medications
- Splinting or supportive wraps
- Cold laser therapy
- Surgery (in severe or advanced cases)
- Referrals for specialty care when needed
Our team will walk you through each treatment option to help you make the best choice for your pet’s health and your budget.
