and she is little, i think about 4lbs.
Good to hear she's feeling better. In an earlier post you said you are away from home 8 hrs a day so I'm guessing that you free feed ? Do you keep track/measure out her food each day ? so that you know how much she eats each day. Most of the time dogs do not eat or drink much while we are away. Have you ever noticed that when you get home she will say her hellos & then go eat & drink ? You may need to try coming home for lunch to feed her. It is 1 thing for a 10 lb dog to 8 hrs without eating but quite another for a 4 lb dog. I'm betting it was hypoglycemia but if it happens again you deff should take her for a check up & some blood work. Again, so glad she's doing better now.
