Donating YT 30K Club Member | When was the last time he drank water? Do you feed him soft food? I would call the vet ASAP.

| Taking him to the vet would be what I would do first and foremost.

| How old is he? Where did you get him from? Do you have a Vet? Does he seem dehyrated? pull a little on his skin does it snap back or stay up where you had pulled it at? Is he eating, is he playful, lethargic? How does he act?? It's really hard to say with little info.

| Try turkey baby food. That really helps my older Yorkie when she's off her food because of stress or anything. She loves it after I spoon the first bite into her. Sometimes you have to get something in their mouth before they will eat it. Also, I'm a believer in that Nurtra Cal. You can get it at the vets or any pet store. Just a bit to get their appetite going. Hope this helps. Probably it's just the stress from being adopted and all the new things going on.

| That is so sad that a 10 yr old pup ends up in adoption. LIfe events happen I suppose to make things like that happen. I hope your pup will spring back and spend happy years with you. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | poor baby - GOOD luck with him - and sometimes you can use a little syringe to give them water - he sounds like he was really needing a good home and he found one with you - GOOD LUCK with him - when a yorkie is in that kind of shape at only 5 years old - (no teeth and worms) he's had a very hard life.... that just breaks my heart to know how neglected or abused he must have been bless his heart - I hope he gets to feeling better. |
