<P> </P>
<P>I'm not a vet, in fact I am the CLUELESS momPerson. And you do not need advice from anyone who's clueless. </P>
<P> </P>
<P>You need advice from the vet. RUN, don't walk, RUN to the vet. With any luck there's a thorn in his paw or he needs his nails trimmed or something else relatively simple is out of wack.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>We don't want to discuss here bassets and their spines and their joints and what else could possibly be happening.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>I've had dogs all my life as did my mother before me and if there's one thing I know it is that when you have a feeling something is not right with the dog, you are CORRECT.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Call the vet. PLEASE</P>
<P> </P>
