We lost Chuey to this Hello.
I recently lost my first Yorkie baby Chuey to brain swelling. He first got sick from pneumonia and was treated with a lot of antibiotics. However, he was stumbling a lot and the vet had not answer for this. The stumbling got worse and turned into him not being able to walk or control his bowels. Eventually vet did ultrasound on hear, and because he was so tiny and young, they could see what was going on in his brain. By this point, he was hardly lifting his head. Dr said the damage would not be reversable. We decided to put him down. It was such a hard decision, you wouldn't imagine it. You can read my post in sick, and follow his whole story.
Best wishes for you and for whoever's baby has this problem, it is absolutely horrible. I could never keep an animal with this condition, (depending on severity) alive for very long.
I'm here if you need to talk or have any questions.
Take care,
