Dog Limping? See a Vet in San Jose
A limping dog may have a minor paw injury — or a serious fracture, ligament tear, or bone disease. If you're looking for a vet near me for a limping dog, ARCH Veterinary offers same-day orthopedic exams, digital X-rays, and advanced diagnostics at our Winchester location in San Jose.
