I had a similar experience with Deegan when we was young... we were out doing errands, and he was in his puppy purse with me... He didn't eat his breakfast that morning and didn't want any treats, but he was still his playful self, so while we were out his sugar got really low and when I saw that he didn't look right I flipped out! He was very limp, glossy eyes & just not responding well. I was ran through the mall to find a place that would have honey or suryp... I ran into a Burger King and got some honey and water, and just dipped my finger in the honey and put it in him mouth and slowly tried to give him water.. It was pretty messy because he wasn't swallowing it all. But I just did this til the honey package was gone and called the vet. It was a Sunday and luckily the vet was on call (on his boat) he told me that what I did was good and to try and get him to the emergency vet. So I gave Deegan more honey and water and drove like a mad woman to the emerg. By the time I got there he had improved alot!! They looked him over, gave him some nutrical and some treats to eat. Needless to say I bought some Nutrical of my own and always carried it with me everywhere and gave it to him when I thought he needed it. That only happened once and he seems to be fine and I haven't given him nutrical in some time. They will grow out of it, but I do understand the worry and panic that comes with the experience. Good luck. |
