[babyella]

Last Tuesday I got my new 6 week old puppy names ella. After reading some of these threads it worries me that I received her at 6 weeks old. Do you think this is a major concern? She only weighed 12 oz when I took her to the vet last week.

First, she seems very healthy, the vet said everythings ok. I am just concerned on what signs to look for if she has hypoglycemia? And what do I do if it happens?

Secondly, I am leaving on the 18th of Dec thru to Dec 30. She will be staying with my mother while I am away, I have already taken her to her house a few times so she knows it, do you think this will damage her as a pup in any way?

Thirdly, I am worried about going back to work (since I have had her I have not worked, but will be starting a job Jan 9th) I will be working 8 hours a day and am worried to leave her home affraid she might me lonely. I am able to block her off in the kitchen area with her food and toys, but still am worried about her being alone. I bought a yorkie book which says they do not like to be left alone. Please help if any of you have this same problem, I dont want to be a bad yorkie mom.

Other than that reading these threads she seems to have a normal yorkie personality. She seems to want to chew on a lot of things like expensive furniture (do any of you have this problem with your pup chewing on your furniture?). She seems great at potty training I am currently using paper (she was too big for a dog litter box. Plus she ate the litter pellets when I put them down)

I would really appreciate any of you helping me out with taking care of my new baby Ella. Thank you
