Call me crazy but.... I took in a new puppy this evening. The person was going to sell her to me or to someone else, didn't care as long as she got the money. She was the last of the litter, and she's only 7.5 weeks old. I know that they are suppose to stay with their mom longer, but I couldn't let her go to someone who didn't have experience. It's possible that she could have gone to someone that didn't know about low blood sugar etc. When I got her, her gums where as white as snow and she was shaking from being so nervous. So, I tucked her into my purse (she's only 1.5lbs) and rushed into the grocery store with her. I got some dark Karo syrup and put it in her mouth as soon as we got back in the car. I sat there with her for about 10 minutes making sure that she got plenty. She stopped shaking and then I brought her home. She really came to live after seeing my other Yorkies. Ellie is such a good momma dog that she tooked to her right away. The puppy, which I am calling Izzy, is now very perky and is now sleeping after the first hour of being home. I am taking her to the vet in the morning. Wish Izzy a good exam and health. |
I probably would have done the same thing. Good luck at the vet!!! |
You are soooo awesome!!!! I'll be praying all goes well with the vet. ((((((((HUGS))))))))) |
That's a wonferful thing you did. I hope everything goes well at the Vet. |
You are so sweet and so not crazy. The person would have sold her to just anyone who probably would not have been so caring and knowing what to do for her. Congratulations. Hoping good things for the vet visit. |
You did the right thing, the so called breeder only cares about the money, so who knows where the poor puppy could have ended up! |
What a wonderful thing you've done:) Hope all goes well for you and little Izzy! |
Thank you all. Well, I am off to the vets. They open at 8 this morning and I want to be there first thing. She's not eating the dog food that the breeder sent home, so I think I am going to need some canned puppy food. I will talk it all over with the doctor this morning and will update everyone when I get back. Thanks so much for the kind words and prayers. |
I'm praying all goes well. I think the canned food should do the trick too. ((((HUGS)))) |
Update from the vet I just got back from the vet. She got a clean bill of health with the exception of fleas :eek: They gave her some Revolution for dogs under 5lbs. She weighed 1.5lbs as the vet, so I know that my scales are right too. They also gave her a B12 shot with something in it to increase her appite. I also got some nutri-cal. She will be due for another shot around 8/24. Thank you so much for the warm thoughts and comments. I will probably post some pictures after I can give her a bath, which isn't for 48 hours now because of the flea treatment. Thanks again everyone. Lisa |
Bless your heart! As my sister would say, this will get you stars in your crown in heaven. Can't wait to see her pictures. Vivian |
You did the right thing.:) |
Glad to hear she is doing good. |
Congrats on the new addition! |
You're Awesome!!!! :good job: :justahug: (Hug!!) |
