Your dog needs to be examined by a veterinarian. Small dogs are prone to rupture of their intervertebral disc disease. This can cause paralysis or paresis. Your veterinarian will do a thorough examination, a neurological examination, and may take x-rays.
Before your appointment keep your dog under strict rest; do not allow running, jumping or playing. Do not allow your dog to jump in the furniture or walk up stairs.
If this is a sprain or a strain your veterinarian can prescribe appropriate pain medication.
