Well, and that's why I worry, b/c all I see is her rolling a lot, but she brings her drive to everything she does, chasing balls in the house (laid down a fair bit last night though), walks, whatever.
So Toby looks at her and says 'She's fine, she's not in pain' and I am not sure. The accidents to me are a clear sign of pain. We'll see if we can get that under control, I hope so.
They will be doing the x-rays soon - she does have an infected anal gland though! They've expressed her and she'll be going home with antibiotics. No signs of scooting or anything, I had no idea!

Wow! Are you going to ask how to tell next time? Please us what you learn.
The vet is going to show me the anal glands when we're in next week for Teagan to be palpitated.
Her x-rays all looked good but the other vet will look at them too. Her hip dysplasia remains mild, no arthritis or spondylosis in the spine, and no real arthritis in her knees either.
So the pain thing is a bit of a mystery, though the vet did not some abdominal pain. She couldn't see the kidneys on the x-ray. There was lots of poop and she wondered if the kidneys were hiding b/c Teagan doesn't have a lot of body fat so it is differentiated as clearly on the x-ray.
The one thing that did show on her x-ray is some possible masses that might be poop, or might not. She had a lot of poop in her, so. The vet palpitated a mass but lost it so she thought it could've been poop as well.
Anyways, so we're waiting for the bloodwork and urinanalysis. We'll see from there. I'm hoping not masses but we'll see.
