| greetings! greetings. my name is monkey & i just joined yorkietalk.com yesterday and am hereby introducing myself. i am the proud owner of a 2.5 lb male yorkie named muzio. muzio is 18 months old and lives in nyc. several days ago he took a bad fall off the bed and suffered a serious head injury. after several days in the hospital, it was determined that he suffered a concussion. he is home now and recuperating well. anyone ever experience anything like this? |

| Welcome to yt. I am so glad your little baby is home and doing better. That is sooooooo scary. My husband built and bench for Murfee and since we moved we bought another. He won't use stairs although he goes up and down stairs

| thanks for your kind words regarding muzio. he's actually doing a lot better today. according to his vet, he needs to really rest and not be subjected to any loud sounds. the prednisone his taking is making him very tired which makes him sleep which is a good thing. i'm not used to seeing him like this, he's usualy a very rambunctous, feisty little guy. you can't imagine how scary this incident was. i truly though he had broken his neck and died. thank god for 24 hour animal hosptials! the best to you and your family and yorkie's in the new year. monkey |

| Sugar suffered a mild concussion last month. It was terrifying even though it was mild and didn't require an overnight stay so I can just imagine how scary that was for you. I'm glad he's doing better. I'd love to see some pictures of him. Welcome to YT!

| Welcome to YT! I'm glad he's doing better now. Lacy fell off the back of the couch once but didn't hurt herself..she's not as tiny as your baby though

| These little guys can get hurt so easily...but they don't know that. I own a 2.5lb fella myself so I can sympathize. I can't say that I've ever had a dog that had a concussion, at least not that I can remember. A suggestion though: Keep your dog off the bed. (Or anything high where falling would present a risk, for that matter.) Or get some stairs or something where he can easily get up and down. I hope he has a speedy recovery. Welcome to YT! |
