She is on Albon and I have to force feed her every hour. She has diarea real bad and still throws up every once in a while but she does seem better then this morning. Please pray for her, I already love her.
I called the breeder and she had no idea she was sick, but I wanted to warn her because the vet said her litter mates will probably have it also. The breeder is going ahead and treating them even though they have no signs yet. The vet said that she probably started showing the signs because of the stress of going to her forever home.
I am kind of scared, I hope she gets better soon, she looks so pitiful.  |
WOW, that is exactly how my first 2 days went with my yorkie. To my understanding, coccidea is very common in puppies and can be treated fairly easily with medicine. And hypoglycemia is fairly easy to control once you know what to look for and you shuold be okay since you are feeding her by hand every hour. Unfortunately for CHloe, her mommy had to learn the hard way. Luckily the hypoglycemia is only for thier first 6 months. Good luck , and I will pray for her.
