Read this article and learn the symptoms of hypoglycemia, knowing the symptoms could save your puppies life. Most breeders will not allow a dog under two pounds to leave, and this is a very critical time for you puppy. Make sure food is available all the time, even a 5 minute play period can deplete the puppy’s energy reserves, they don’t have any fat yet, and when this happens, hypoglycemia can result.
