I agree. I would want to know what is causing the "fading".
http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/bre...er-remedy.html Here is a sticky I found on it. If you read through the thread, sub q fluids are recommended, also letting pup nurse by itself w mom and keeping warm.
I really would consider going back to vet or going to another one. Something that small will dehydrate quickly and drop blood sugar quickly. The brain has no ability to store sugar, must have blood supply, to operate.
