| Roxy fell down the steps tonight. She seems like she is ok. Playing and walking the steps again. She tumbled from the top step down thank God she was on her side. She seems ok. When she went down I though she was prob going to be dead. I have been a mess loving her and kissing her. It was at my mom's house and she just feels so bad. Do you thinkg she is OK?

I'd just keep an eye on her. Like with people, sometimes it's the next day before you feel stiff or sore. I had whiplash once and it was a week before I had any symptoms. Hopefully she'll be just fine. | |

| I hope she is OK! Maybe you should take her to the vet just to be safe. I think sometimes they get concussions- although I am not to sure about them.

| hmm just wake her up every hour in case she had a concusion...and test for hairline fractures by grabbing different areas of her body kinda hard until you have done her whole body. if she yelps like crazy on her leg or something then you need to take her to a vet. i dropped yogi many times when he was young and used that to test. should be fine, i dunno why breeders cant gurantee our yorkies 9 lives like cats do...errr |

| She seems ok. The bad thing for me is that my Dad fell down the basement steps while my parents were redoing their house. My Dad has a very bad TBI that left him a quadroplegic and unable to speak. My mom thinks that is why I am so upset and that she is OK. She keeps on telling me that she is ok look she is playing and going potty. Maybe it is my nerves that I might of lost something due to a fall again. I told my mom that I was so upset from post on here from people that lost their lil babies.

| hmm Well sometimes you need to acknowledge the bad things in life but dont let them control your life. Let me tell you after three combat tours in Iraq i have plenty to cry about and live with many things daily. so if i ever come off harsh to anyone who uses tragedy to justify their feelings about stuff then forgive me. Just find the good things in life and keep on truckin. Yur pup fell down, she is fine and im glad that she is. Just kinda brush it off,learn from it and keep on truckin. I think a nice walk around the block would help kinda calm you down everytime your yorkie does what we call combat rolls down the stairs. |

| I happen around 6:30 and she seems fine. I am so sick to my stomach right now. I am keeeping her up playing thinking about if she dont wake up tomorrow. I am also thinking about the horribe thought if she would of fell head frist and broke her neck. My lil girl is my life. I lost the man of my dreams from cancer in 04. My Dad was daignosed with cancer a month from his passing. Then my Dad being hurt. MY MOM THINKS THAT ROXY MAKES ME SOOOOO HAPPY. THE BEST SHE HAS EVER SEEN ME

| Oh my gosh! Elphaba hasn't attempted to go down yet - she's almost 5 months now, and that makes me very happy because I've had a nasty tumble down a flight of stairs before. I can't imagine what it would do to my tiny baby if she slipped. Hope everything is okay! |
