Thanks for the replies and sorry took so long to get back in touch with you all. I have good news though, I was able to get him to eat puppy food with some water and formula mixed in with it so between all three I know he's getting his nutrients he needs. So far I've just been letting him eat whenever he wants and as much as he wants as I do not want him in the condition I found him in Monday morning. It was pitiful but he is much better now. I still have a lot of concerns for him. I don't know if it's my instincts telling me something is wrong or just that I'm worried so much that I think it's my instincts telling me something wrong when it really not. He 6 weeks old and seems like not active like the other pups we've had from our other yorkie girl. Seems like by now they were getting along good and up for a lot of the time playing and such. Well he can get around good and all that but majority of his time, I'd say 80% or more is him sleeping on my shoulder. Since mom stopped caring for him it seems like he has become less playful. When other dogs are around he use to open his mouth and try biting them but he's stopped doing that. The only other thing I think could cause this is because I forgot to put him in his box at night and so he wondered around and apparently got stuck behind something. Hubby found him crying and weak in morning, not bad weak, but weak like he been crying for awhile. That's when I started bottle feeding because we both discussed that we haven't seen the mom around him much lately. She would always jump in box with him at night but she wasn't doing that anymore, even if he was crying. So I don't know. I'm scared to death something is wrong and of course I'm super attached to him like I am all my dogs. I'm just not sure what to do. Don't really have money to take to vet again if he's fine and he may be, I could be wrong. I just don't know. I thought maybe he should be more active than he is right now but he is only like 12 or so ounces so he's little. I don't know if maybe it traumatized him when he got stuck and he's acting different because of that, if mom realized something wrong and left him, or if he's completely normal and I'm freaking out for no reason. I guess I'll just have to take it one day at a time, making sure he eats enough, and give him all the love I can possibly give him. That's what I'm going to do. |
