She also gave her some kind of upset stomach shot she didn't mention the name and it wasn't on the bill. She's a little better today, her stomach stills makes noises and she gets very weak very fast but is back to normal when given pedialyte. I will let you know what our vet says wed.

By the way, what do you personally feed your yorkies? When she is feeling better I am hoping to switch her to a high quality dog food since her breeder choose puppy chow.. I've been reading all about the different kind and have been thinking about ordering Orijen.

Again thank you so so so much!
I'm so glad that you took your little girl to the vet and that you have an appointment Wed. with your regular vet! Kudos to you for being a great Yorkie Mommy!

I'm happy she is doing better and I hope she continues to grow stronger every day with the medication.

Continue to keep us updated on your little girl's progress.

Diet/kibble suggestions: wait until you see your regular vet and discuss the kidney related test results. One of the knowledgeable and experienced people here can then give you info on some options for a good puppy kibble. (my kibble knowledge is limited and my boys' food probably wouldn't suit your puppy)
