Complaint was front limb lameness. Yet the old dog's front paws were wet and swollen, with some wounds. Why? This video shows that it is due to pawing of the mouth to relieve the intense tooth ache. Bad breath filled the room. Dentall work will be done 24 hours after antibiotics. This is a case of lameness, thought at first to be injury. Ii is not  what it appears to be.
