It sounds like her movement should be restricted for a while in case it is an injury though it
could be a different spinal problem.

Still, DO check the rest (blood testing, urine testing, etc.). It just makes sense to because the
position could be uncomfortable for other things including urinary tract problems and
because there are always coincidences and possibly simultaneous problems after a certain
age. At her age -- which is about like a human being in the mid sixties *IF* I remember right
and she is 6 and 1/2 years old -- those tests are good to do periodically, anyway. We all
have more going on with age, no matter what number of legs we have... So, find and treat.
