I suggested that a trip to a specialist would be best? Her owner comes back Sunday, so hopefully she does well and it was just a bad infection that caused it. I do know the vet stated if she hadn't been brought into emergency she most likely would not have made it. Thank you for your concern, even though she's not a yorkie (and not even my pet) I know that this site and its members has been SO helpful to me.
I wonder if it was indeed an infection, was the WBC high then?

A specialist is an awesome idea, I'd see an internist if it were me, most likely. I so hope some answers are found.

Btw, your Mom is awesome and I hope the owners do realize she literally saved this little one's life by acting so swiftly!
