If your dog suddenly starts limping, dragging a leg, or showing weakness in the back end, it can be quite alarming. One possible cause is fibrocartilaginous embolism (FCE), a spinal cord condition that affects blood flow and can lead to sudden lameness, knuckling paws, or even leg paralysis.

At Bayside Animal Hospital, we know how frightening it is to see your pet struggle to stand or walk. Understanding this condition and how it’s treated can help you respond quickly and support your dog’s recovery with confidence and compassion.
