It's very easy for Yorkies to become hypoglycemic. It's VERY important that Yorkie puppies get fed often and regularly. The young ones need to eat every 3-4 hours to regulate their blood sugar. Pet store puppies often already have nutritional deficiencies either from the breeder or genetic issues. They can't tolerate any additional stress from hypoglycemia. I don't want to insult your relatives, but someone really needs to step in on behalf of that puppy!! |
