10 year old dachshund front leg limp?

Hey, i was wondering if anyone knew anything about this. My 10 year old mini dachshund was wobbling when she walked today. It seems like she doesnt have very much feeling in that leg. She has mostly just laid around all day, but the leg is not sensitive or anything. Can anyone help me? Of course I will bring her to the vet but i wanted to see if anyone knew anything at all about this happening with doxies or small dogs?

Did she jump off something? if so perhaps she has just pulled a muscle, sorry I can't be more specific, but it is a pulled muscle she should be okay in a couple of days with a little rest, but you are being sensible taking her to the vets as they are the experts. Do keep us posted as too how she gets on. Comforting gentle pats toyour little girl.
