just had our first scare..
 

he was acting a little funny..he was shaking a little and when i took him out the cage he wouldnt stand up he kind of was flopping over so i started to freak.. i gave him 2ml of the nutra vitamin nd was rubbing his body to get the sugar flowing through his blood.. it was like he got a burst of energy in 2 minutes and he started running around.. i think hes gunna be ok but jesus my heart stopped for a few minutes.

Glad he is okay, these little ones can scare the life out of you. :)

im still worried, when he is sitting still his head is kind of wobbling left to right .. please help =(

i really dont kno what it is but im bumping this up for you so hopefully someone sees it that knows what it could be!

Do you have an after-hours vet in your area? Most of the time you can call for an opinion. They will give advice and tell you whether you might need to bring them in.

Mine have never had sugar issues, so I'm not much help with that though.

You need to contact the er vet, and probably take him in. Sounds like hypoglycemia, try to get him to eat anything, use more nutrical and call the vet PLEASE! He can go downhill very, very quickly.

This pup needs to see a vet.
Nutrical should pull them out of an attack within a few minutes and it sounds like it did help but since he is still having what sounds like neurologic issues and isn't being pulled out of it fully, he has to see a vet. If he still won't come out of it with sugar, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a liver issue (liver shunt) here. I hope he is okay. :(

Giving a pup Nutri-cal will help but don\'t think they\'re okay with just that. For him to have gotten to that state, he was pretty weakened. He needs to get some food in him and also rest. Just because he wants to play, don\'t let him. It can take a couple of days for a pup to recover from an episode such as this so make sure you get some food in him, keep him warm and do not let him exert himself.

Hope things are better. Can we have an update?

I didn\'t realize he was still doing stuff, I would call the er vet and take him in, they will crash very fast and you don\'t want that trust me.:(

I hope your little one is feeling better.

This is a common thing with a new puppy. They may not eat as well as they should and play too hard. A small pup simply doesn\'t have the energy reserves you may think. Even if they haven\'t been playing much, they can have an episode if they don\'t eat properly and often. A pup should have a firmness to their body and should not feel slack or flaccid. If you ever notice this, you should make sure he eats right then even if they have no apparent symptoms. Nutri-cal is good but watch out and don\'t overdue it as it can cause a sugar spike in their blood. A dab a couple of times a day should be fine but there\'s really no substitute for him eating properly. Some pups do just fine until they\'re weaned and then become picky eaters and can have episodes even with no under-lying health issues. Since you\'ve had this episode with him, he should be checked several times a day to make sure he has a firmness to him and feels robust. Don\'t just trust him to eat by putting food out...make sure he eats and this will help avoid future episodes. If he\'s eating well and still has these bouts, you must consider the possibility that he may have other health issues. As I mentioned earlier, it will take him a couple of days to fully recover even though he may seem fine sooner so absolutely limit his activity.

Update: He ate...a lot..he didnt like the kibble i was mixing with it.but now its been 10 minutes since then and his head is still kinda bobbing...and he seems a little lazy..what do you guys think..thanks in advance..

Adding: He also seems to go in and out of it every 10 minutes or so...hell be really lazy and all of a sudden he\'s a lightning bolt..

i think itd be best to contact a vet for an opinion, for it to keep continuing makes me nervous, being so tiny things happen so quickly and you cant be to careful when it comes to your baby
