How old? Has she eaten? Do you have nutrical or Kayro syrup? DOes she feel colder than usual? SOunds like possible Hypoglycemia....most common in Yorkies so I would) assume its that and treat that first. (id say it the most common for those symptoms) If you have Kayro rub some on her gums right away and try to get her to eat.

Rub some Nutrical, Karo, or Honey on her gums and then get her to a vet ASAP!!!! This is very serious.

Do you have a 24 hour vet close to your home?

everyone who owns a yorkie should know about hypoglycemia. look on the thread above which has a link. small dogs suffer from this often. it is very good to know the signs.

i hope her baby is ok. it also sounded a little like liver shunt as well.

I did not ask what is hypoglycemia. LOL I said was it hypoglycemia that her baby had?? It could be liver shunt or a million other things, I'm hoping it was just a hypoglycemic episode. My baby had severe hypoglycemia when he was a pup..He had to be fed every hour...

It did sound like it could have been hypoglycemia, liver shunt, or a neurological problem which is why I recommended that she get to a vet immediately. I'm really worried. I hope everything is okay.
