TopicMy dog took a 7 to 8 feet height drop and landed on his side

I didnt witness this but heard my brother scream when this happened and i questioned him about it. About 8 hours ago my brother decided to carry my dog (4 year old pomeranian) down the stairs in a half jog pace so the dog freaked out and kicked off his chest. My bro said he landed on "his side" rather than his feet which made me cringe but at least he didnt land on his head. Id say the drop was about 7 ft minimum since my bro is 6'2 tall and his chest level should be about 5 feet off the ground. The stairs add an extra 2 feet and some inches assuming 7 inch per step. My bro said he was on the 4th step from the bottom when the incident happened.

My dog's behaviour seems normal. He is still jumping on and off the couch and does his beggar's dance for food. I made sure to apply pressure around his body to see if he'll yelp in pain but fortunately there is no such reaction. I even walked him today for about 30 mins and his gait is normal. Is there anything else i should be wary of?

Also he does have to be carried down the stairs because he slid down from the top about 3 years ago. He didnt seem physically hurt by that either but he does avoid going down uncarpeted steps these days.



Also yeah im kinda mad at my bro for being so careless.

Has your pet ever fallen off something similar and was ok? I just want reassurance because its been on my mind for the past couple of hours.
