        2 days ago I realized my doe was walking very oddly. She was dragging her hind end behind her. It seems that her hind legs are paralyzed. She is still pooping and I am waiting to see if she is urinating. Can anyone help me? I have no idea what to do and not much to spend on expensive veterinary treatments.

          Here are some possible causes of paralysis/paresis

          How old is she?

          Treatment may not be expensive. If from a sprain or damaged spinal cord for example, it may simple need time to heal. If parasitic (EC can cause hind limb paralysis) the medication for this is not expensive.

            We can’t help through a computer screen. Get her to a vet.
