I remember reading of one yorkie who died when a remote control hit him on the head. They have a soft spot that doesn't close for a while. Concussions also can happen through head trauma, and you should be looking for any signs of vomiting, as this can indicate something serious. I know with children, you look at the pupils to see if they are both the same size, I'm not sure if the same is true with dogs. You do it with a flashlight. I call the vet when something like this happens, and they tell me what to look for. If the vet isn't open, I call the emergency clinic. They don't always tell me to bring him in, sometimes they say it can wait, and bring him in if X occurs. Best of luck. |
