When you say 'dragging his back legs' do you mean he has lost use of them?
Was this an acute problem or a gradual increasing hind leg weakness ?

Possible causes of hind leg paresis/paralysis are EC, spinal injury/degeneration, CVA (stroke). It certainly sounds as though the Bun requires Veterinary attention ASAP

As far as i know, she has lost use of them and it is a sudden problem. Can't contact her by phone at the moment but will keep trying. xxxx

If it's a sudden problem the Bun needs Veterinary attention tonight
