Riley is 14 wks old. She weighs only 1 lb 10 oz. For the most part, she is an active puppy. She had problems with hypoglycemia when we brought her home at just under 11 weeks. One episode yesterday as well. We supplement with Nutri-Cal, but she doesn't eat much. I offer food several times a day, but in total she probably eats about 30 pieces of Nutro Natural puppy food per day. I know her tummy is small, but is that enough?

It was suggested to me on here that she have a bile acid test for liver shunt. I've done some research on symptoms: small stature, poor appetite, head pressing, increased drinking and urinating, balance problems, etc.

Riley is tiny, doesn't eat much at all, rubs her head constantly on things, will drink a ton some days, pees all the time, etc.

BUT here are my thoughts: Maybe she's just supposed to be tiny, many Yorkies puppies on here seem to have appetite issues, she does have a bit of dandruff on her head (and it's winter), maybe she's just super thirsty from playing and kennel time, her bladder is small, she only has balance issues during a hypoglycemic episode.

So, what I'm saying is she has a lot of symptoms, but I can just as easily chalk them up to normal things in a puppy's life.

What do you all think?
