My smallest yorkie had an episode of hypoglycemia. It was a very warm day and she had been running and playing hard. It had also been a while since her last meal. She began to shake or shiver, wanted me to hold her, she also acted like she was sleepy. I immediately gave her some Nutri Cal and then fed her, her kibble. After a sugar suppliment is give, always feed them their dog food to keep the blood sugar level.
The best thing to do is prevent it from happening! Keep your pup hydrated and fed or free feed. I carry the Nutri Cal and some food with me when I am away from home for a length of time. |
