About a week after we brought Joey home (he was 8 weeks, now he is 2 years) I woke up one morning earlier than normal and checked on Joey. He could barely lift his head. I called the emergency vet, they said to give him some nutri-cal or Karo. I did, but no difference within 10 minutes, so I called them and said we are on our way (I made a 25 minute drive in 15 minutes). I yelled at him three times, because I thought he had passed away, but when i yelled for him not to go to sleep, I would see a little movement. By the time I got him there, his blood sugar didn't even register. They put him on an IV and with minutes he was up and active. I left him there for the day, and he has been fine ever since. He is my baby of the four Yorkies I have. I will never forget that lifeless body I took to the Emerg. Vet. He is stilled spoiled after all this time, and it's because I love him so much and I almost lost him.
