new puppy got at front of Walmart
 

:mad: purple




After having a very bad week. Mother in Law's Yorkie girl who I was to get a puppy from get eclampsia and died along with all four pups. I went shopping at Walmart tonight for Christmas stuff. when out front was a small elderly man with a cardboard box handing out tiny under 1 pound puppies, with thier eyes barely opened. He said they were ready to go and need homes. as they had they're pipes break and had server water damage all oveer thier house and no heat due to this. So I took the last puppy. after I almost chewed him out. {SO WANTED TOO!} He told me they're Mom is a peke a poo with papers and Dad's a Yorkie, and they were going to sell them but cause of the house damge just wanted them gone.



I need advice about this. the pup has fleas. and tear stains under her eyes. {I tried to buy the other pups {2 more} from the other people who took them but no go. I got puppy milk,a puppy bottle and soft food pedigree puppy and dry. but too soon for that. and have her in blankets. Poor thing is half frozen.


Anything else I need to do???? besides a vet asap.


Eggs and Noel{the puppy.} Tis Christmas after all.

for the fleas: he is too young to give a bath so you might want to get a flea comb and pick them off that way
How many fleas does he have? if they are covered in fleas for a long time then they can become anemic :eek:

Oh and you could try wiping the eyes with a warm damp towel... and the best thing for keeping warm is to put blankets in the dryer and then wrap them up in that!

so good of you to step in .... and i love the name ;) noel is perfect

did you buy him or was he free? :confused:

Bless your heart! Please keep us posted on how she's doing. Do you know how old she is? ell at least one puppy has a loving home tonight!

noel was free, I trried to get the other pups but nogo,
 

okay she's had a bottle and got her to pee and poo. and she's sleeping in a blanket snuggled too me. now what?

the guy said four/five weeks old.
 

but her eyes are real googley? and she's not walking but kinda of swin crawling.

Oh bless you and this baby girl!!! Call your vet or one who can specialize in the small breeds. She needs a supplement I am guessing and possibly some specialized care right now.

Keeping her warm is wonderful, very important.

Please keep us posted on Noel....Merry Christmas to you both and I pray this little girl grows strong and healthy.

AWWWWWWW how scarey yet sweet that is i do believe you got a miracle ..

Make sure that the pup stays warm. Cold can kill the pup. use a warm damp washcloth or cotton ball and wipe the eyes. It can get an infection (the goop sound REALLY bad) and the dog will be blind. Take it to a vet as soon as you can to get meds for the eyes and a good check over. Pup will probably also need to be wormed.

Go to your local pet store and buy De Flea! I bought a bottle of it before for my SIL's chi/yorkie mix and it kills on contact. It can be used for newborn puppies and older. It's a very watery "shampoo" but turns into soap and lathers nice! Don't use too much! I can try to take a picture of it to show you. Its in a tan (and kind of striped) bottle. PM me about it if you want!

And I'm so sorry to hear about Bebe. I hope everything goes well with Noel.

If you have any other dogs - keep them away from this one. I don't want to alarm you but...The eyes gooked up could be a bad disease - like distemper or something similar. Sorry, but just to be on the safe side. Have your vet check him out first. I was a vet tech years ago and usually when pups like this came in they were very sick.
Here is some information: http://www.animalhealthchannel.com/distemper/

T.

Are the eyes okay or crusty with puss. If clear - less like ly to be distemper. But I would really have your vet check him out tomorrow, as I am sure you will. Best of luck with your new baby.

tear stains and her eyes aren't focussed.
 

just that nothing esle I said it wrong. She looks alittle crossed eyed,LOL


Found out now that she's much warmer,she does stand thu not steady,will eat puppy soft food. and will drink warm water. and will walk a tiny bit. I think she was just too darn cold. {smallest pup I think}

Got her in some baby blankets,with a heating pad next to the heat duct. and I plain on sleeping next too it tonight. She seems okay. for now.


Eggs and Noel {My reason for enjoying this season.}


Thanks All. I'll keep everyone updateed

It clearly shows how much you care for this little one. It was meant to be that you were given this little girl to take care of. Tomorrow's vet visit will be much needed and important.

Please remember, she will need to eat very often, like every hour or two. So, this might be a very long night for you but well worth it.

She is a very much noted Christmas angel....Schatzie sends hugs her way.

Bless your heart for stepping in :love: It sounds like she's going to be a little fighter, being taken away from her mommy, shame on him! But at least now she's being take care of and I hope that she'll get some good meds from the dr. and be on her way. I wouldn't use any flea product on her, no matter how safe they say it is. I heard that vets use Pert Shampoo on very small puppies for fleas, just make sure that she stays warm while you shampoo and dry her thoroughly. Let us know how she is...

Ah bless your heart for saving the little one, I hope He/she is ok.. I'm sure it needs tlc. and a vet trip as soon as you can.

Please let us know how she is doing.

I pray that Heavenly Father is with her right now and keeping her safe, the fact that she found you means that he is watching out for this dear one. You are an Angel for all of your efforts. You will be rewarded greatly for what you have done!

Please let us know how she is doing and what the vet says!

I saw my share of pups like this just a couple of days ago. A lady and a teenage girl were walking around Petco with a tiny puppy s**tzu and bragging that it was only 4 weeks and 2 days old and that it was for her young son! My boyfriend and I were so angry. You just want to say something...but you can't.
I'm really happy you came upon your little guy. He is very lucky to have gotten you as his new mommy! Please keep us updated on how he is doing and what your vet has to say :)

Just wondering how the puppy is doing now?

How is that sweet little thing doing? Have you been to the vet? Does she have any problems other than the obvious. You will be blessed more than you know for what you have done..Keep us posted..

We are so waiting for an update on your puppy and a photo! My fingers are crossed the pup is doing well! :D

Yes how are things going???

Noel the Christmas puppy
 

is fine and has been to the vet. She's a healthy and now very bouncey 4 week old puppy. whose cutting teeth sorta. LOL....


Sorry all just trying to keep up with her and my dairy farm is kicking my butt. LOL..... With 12pm and 3 am her times for a quick snacka nd play time. with the rest of the day her ridding in my apron while I tend my cows.



Right now she's eating soft food {pedigree puppy canned with water} as she won't drink water alone. and will not drink goats milk any more.

She weighs right now as of the vet vist on Tuesday a whopping 12 onces. so I did get her weight up.


and now she's sorta walking waddling and getting to know she's got a voice and that I'll come a running if she whines or cries.

Wow, you are amazing with the dedication, love and support your have given this angel! Keep up the great work, and glad to hear she is doing well!

Wow. God bless you for taking in this pup. Please keep us updated on her progress. She sounds like a real miracle baby...

Thanks for the update, you are her angel as she is yours.

Walmart has EVERYTHING
 

You can get EVERYTHING at Walmart now adays! :p On a serious note, what a wonderful :love: you have to take that tiny pup and take care of it. I hope my Walmart doesn't start "selling" pups. Before I'd know it I'd have a house full of Yorkies! Nothin wrong with that, just have to get the house first (live in an apartment now). Have a Happy New Year!

4 weeks old that is just way TOO sad!! :cry8: I hope that the other puppy owners are taking care of theirs as well as you are!

god bless you, you have a heart of gold... thank god for you.... :Puppy: :thumbs up i think you save that puppys life
