@wylies mom

Thanks so much, ill try the cheese idea!

Ok so a couple questions, is the 1/2 cup both dry and wet food or is it different for wet? Is the water intake the same as well?

The breeder did say to get the nutrical and karo and mix the karo in her water. I think between all the stress and lack of eating or drinking enough, that's what caused the hypo episode..of course I'm guessing..

The part I think that upsets me is that the emphasis on making "sure" they are maintaining a certain intake of food, water, karo etc. to stay stable as a preventive measure was lacking and coukd have been avoided. Telling me to give a pea size and mix some water is relatively generic but then I'm mad amd worries so I could be slightly subjective on this lol

The peanut butter, do I put it on her food or in her mouth? It's so small in worry about it sticking and not being able to swallow it?

The vet said to use vanilla low fat yogurt? Is that ok or no, I was reading your comment on dairy and the cottage cheese?

Awesome advice and I thank you! So informative!
