My two-month-old Miniature Pinscher puppy has just had a fall, he fell from my arms in the garden. I can't get hold of my vet. Just after the fall he ate, then he looked like he was going to be sick but he wasn't. He has been playing with his toys.
I've checked him all over and he doesn't yelp in pain, but I'm panicking so much.
As I said, I can't get through to my vet, otherwise I'd be calling for an emergency out-of-hours appointment.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

Jack fell off a chair two weeks ago and the chair landed right on top of him. He screamed his head off, but I actually hesitated to take him to the vet at first because he’s such a little actor; I thought he was just being a bit dramatic. In the end, I called the vet who told me to wait through the night and, if things weren't looking up, to bring him in for an appointment the next day. I'm so glad I did take him because it turns out the poor lad had actually broken his hip. He had his operation on Tuesday morning.
You're never worried for no reason—take him to the vet now and don't just wait to see how it goes.
My 2-month-old Chihuahua puppy fell from my partner's arms last night. He screamed and cried so much and he hasn't stopped crying since. I called my vet and they said he was fine, but I'm really scared. He isn't playing like he used to. He's walking okay, but I'm just so worried.
Still no news yet! While we wait, ffoune, it’s true that you have to act fast, but at the same time, the forum is also here to reassure us when things aren't going well with our little friends. Even though we’re not vets, we all need a bit of support from kind people who love animals! Best wishes.
KEEP US POSTED ON YOUR FRIEND'S HEALTH @ANGIRUBANIS AND HANG IN THERE!
I hope he’s feeling better. The retching could be down to some kind of trauma, but I don’t want to alarm you, angie, you must be worried enough as it is. And ffoune, without wanting to be rude, the atmosphere you're creating in this thread isn't great. If someone says things that upset you, then just don’t come back – it’ll save us from rows like this!
Evening, I’ve just read through everything and I’d also love an update on the little one.
While reading, I noticed 'ffoune' – I’d like to know what’s the point of creating that kind of atmosphere on a forum where people are asking for help??? I don’t think @angieurbanis needs that, especially when you’re having a go at people who are only trying to give some advice!!!!!
On top of that, and I don't think it's very honest, lying about your age as well as your gender!!!!!
Anyway, please let us know how things are because you never know, and as delys pointed out at the start, he did seem to be retching even if he didn't actually bring anything up, so you can never be too sure.
I’ve been wondering about something. Why all the hostility? All that’s been offered is some advice, and whether Angie follows it or not is entirely up to her.
