Hopefully a long and cool nights sleep will fix her and she'll be ready to play tomorrow! Keep in mind that these little guys get dehydrated so quickly and can go downhill just as fast. Keep a watchful eye on your little girl!! I may put some karo syrup in her water to keep her drinking and her blood sugar up. |
Thanks so much for responding!
We're with family, but they don't have dogs, so I feel so out of sorts without all of our usual stuff we'd have at home just in case...
Well, we've been giving her water as often as wel can, even now when we'd normally ban her for the night. Thankfully her gums are still pink, no dehydration. She didn't eat breakfast and wasn't interested in food this evening, not even when my boyfriend tried to hand feed her. She'll normally eat at least some if you hand feed, but food has never been a big deal for her. Lately she's eating both meals each day but for most of her life she decides to only eaten one meal a day. Maybe two hours ago though she took a few treats from me (yay YY's!).
We live in Florida, so the heat isn't something new for her. We've also visit here twice before (though only once that she'd probably remember). So I don't know if she's stressed from being here. I do think she's sick or stressed or something though, just not sure what's causing it. All I know is between her lack of enthusiasm, sad eyes, shaking, and lack of peeing today I'm worried! I think we'll just keep an eye on her. If tomorrow morning she's still not right I may just go to a vet here....
