KIMIKAY asks: "Today, she's sleeping indoors (having been out all night) and I noticed she's not walking with her tail raised up as she usually does. When I laid next to her to pet her, she seemed sort of disturbed when I pet along her back. Does this sound like it could be a back injury? She jumps up and down off the fence in the backyard, but she's not obese at all -- she was so skinny when we got her, and now she's just kind of filled in. Any thoughts?"
