Sadie girl

My Sadie girl is hurting. she's my shepherd cross. cross with what i don't know   i think dobie, others think greyhound   only her markings resemble shepherd and she is tempermental yet a sweetheart   she's been hurting over a week now and i will hopefully be able to get her to the vet next week   i'm requesting a particular vet at the VCA Animal Hospital   when they have their shots, i don't care, but other health problems i prefer Rita Lawler's gentle care with my dogs   anyways, my biggest fear is that she has cancer   i'm hoping it's just something simple like hip displaxia (sp?)    she's only 5 years old and too young to have either....i'm saying a prayer     she's second in charge around here, or so she thinks    it was just her and i for awhile since she was about 8 weeks old out of the animal humane shelter    i hurt for her, but she's hurting more.....
