I need help. Please? :( My yorkie is acting weird too. I just got him a couple of days ago. The first day went fine.. he's running and playing around the house. He jumps when there's food and all. He's really playful during the first 3 days. Then something happened. he fell down 3 flights of stairs on his attempt to go down and play with me. From then on, he's a lil dull. He sleeps all the time and going outside doesn't excite him at all. He doesn't play much now. Is it because he's having a hard time adopting to his new environment? or is it TRAUMA? Or maybe the food he's eating? By the way, he doesn't wanna eat the dog food I just bought in the market. I tried putting it in milk and warm water too but still failed. So I had no hoice but to feed him with people food. Please...I need help!! it's my first yorkie everrr! |
If he was fine until he fell down three flights of stairs it is very likely that he has been injured, you should consider taking him to the Vet. |
I would go to the vets ASAP!!!!! 3 flights of stairs OMG don't forget how small they are could be something internal. Keep us updated!! |
It looks like a low Glucose, how old are your yorkie? puppies usually suffer this problem. Honey helps for recover health Got to the vet anyway |
Please take your little one to the vet ASAP:eek: |

3 FLIGHTS of stairs? or 3 steps? He is most likely injured, it might be just bruising, or it could be a concussion. He definitely needs to be seen by a vet. Aslo do not give him cows milk. Get canned goats milk and maybe some baby rice cereal. But if he was eating fine before, I would not think it is the food. How old is he and what does he weigh |

help for Yorkie 3 steps for a little Yorkie is enough to cause injury. Please take him to the vet to be sure there's nothing wrong internally.:eek: |
You really must take him to the vet. It sounds like concussion to me & you cannot treat it yourself or just hope it will go away. He may well have an internal bleed. If you don't get veterinary help the most likely thing is that you will lose him. Sorry if this scares you but this is IMPORTANT xx Meggie |
How Is Your Little Furbaby? We are all praying for you. PLEASE keep us posted on how he is doing and what the vet said. Thanks! |
How is your little one?? Please let us know. |
As all of the members said, I think your furbaby is injured too...that's why he/she's not as playful as before, I hope you brought him/her to see a vet already, keep us updated :) |
EVERYONE! Thanks for all the replies and for the advice. :) He's okay! :) Doctor said, he was just adjusting to the environment on his first 3 days that's why he's really playful. And loves running around the house to be familiar of his territory. Vet said it's normal for a two year-old yorkie to be a little quiet sometimes coz he's slowly maturing. :) And yeah, vet said I should make him eat dog food. Rice could make him have worms in his tummy. Thanks people! Now, can you suggest food for my yorkie? What kind and how will I push him to eat it? he ignores it. My friend told me I should mix it with other food 40-60% then 50-50& then 60-40% then 80-20% then 100%. Should I go for his advice? |
Really He said rice could give him worms? :confused: Glad to hear hwe is fine, but I do not agree with the rice thing. Although I do believe they need to have dog food cause rice alone does not have what then need for nutrition. |
When my rat terrier was sick once the vet told me to give her plain boiled rice and plain boiled chicken for a few days. Some dog foods also contain rice. Whoever you got your dog from should have told you what they were feeding him so that he could have a smooth transition in his new home. I've found with Yorkies they can be picky eaters, sometimes it takes a few different kinds to find one they like. |

Yeah. My yorkie doesn't like rice. But sometimes, I mix rice with corned beef and he eats it. Doc said it could give him worms. |

You need to enhance the flavor for your pup. You can do this many inexpensive ways. First get a high quality kibble, Wellness, Natural Balance, other's not sold in a supermarket. Then add some, salt free chicken broth, boiled chicken(breast only without bones) and or veggies. You can buy the frozen ones and cook them for 3-4mins in the micro wave, let them cook, peas, green beans, carrots are great and then add them to the food. Who wants to eat plain kibble;) Trick the little stinker with the above and he should look forward to meals. Good luck with him, I'm so relieved he's not injured. Don't let him jump off the bed or furniture either. They get injured so easily and can break a bone also. It's much like taking care of a human baby, that should give you some insight as to how much this breed needs to be cared for. Enjoy, |
