Ranger must have an amazing fur coat from the winter. But it's coming off Monday (the groomer and the vet happen to be in the same building). Which is such a shame--are there any wig shops for Yorkies? |
You will probably get away with waiting til morning for a vet now (I'd be watching very, very close). But this pup needs a vet before anymore physical exertion. If I wasn't seeing a vet right now, I'd keep the dog cool and still. Walking three miles after this episode before seeing a vet is extremely risky. It is not safe to do that and could put his life in danger (you won't know until you have a diagnosis).
