| New Here...HELP pls Ok well I have been wanting a Yorkie for the longest time, so today I get off work to see my husband standing at my car grinning from ear to ear like a little boy. Holding in his hands a Yorkie puppy in a basket. Now she is the cutest little thing in the world, blah blah all the happy happy joy joy stuff. He tell me that he found her online has been "sneaking and looking" for awhile now and came across a man who had a litter of puppy and that he had been to see them a few times. So long story short after getting tiny No Name home I notice she is wobbly, kind of playful but sleepy. My husband informs me that the breeder said she vet to the vet and got her puppy shot yesterday so she may be a little sleepy. So OK still no big issue, so I am laying on the couch playing with No Name and she starts biting on my ear lobe..... SHE HAS NO TEETH!!! Like I can start to see them growing or coming in but they are barley popping out of her gums!! The man said she is 10 weeks old but that can not be possible as again she has no teeth!! I have called him from my cell, my husbands cell, blocked, emailed him nothing.... |

YT 500 Club Member | it sounds like your baby is MUCh younger then you think she might be wobbly because her sugar is low do you have any karo syrup handy? if not GET SOME NOW! when you local pet store opens tomorrow go and get some nutrical and give her the amount it says on the tube please watch her carefully because if shes hypoglycemic she could die send hubby to walmart to get Karo syrup

| I found a site that said to mix goats milk, kayro syrup, yogurt and egg white so I am doing that. It was one more then 1 site for a home milk mixture. She is doing ok I am just so upset and angry and found this site in my search for help. He didnt have to lie about her age, I was not looking for a smaller size dog and I would have waited. Infact I was telling my husband i thought she was going to be very small as a adult and it scared me. I am happy she will be a bigger adult but now scared because I know she is much younger. |

| Honestly if I were you I would march that puppy rite back to where you got her and MAKE that breeder keep her at least another 2 weeks. And when you get there give him a good SMACK in his head. |

YT 500 Club Member | ive never heard of egg white and yogurt but half goats milk half water with a little bit a karo it dosent take to much and you can " over dose " them its the crash when them come down off the sugar high thats the issue im sure we have a milk recipe here somewhere let me see what i can do

| Many unscrupulous breeders will say a pup is much older than it really is to give the impression it will be very small as an adult. You are right to be upset. Since the "breeder" will not answer the phone, it is now up to you to keep this baby well and alive. goats milk is closest to momma's milk. Take her to the vet and see how old the vet can estimate her age at. I do not know how old pups are when their baby teeth break through. I just know they start to lose their baby teeth and get their adult teeth at about 6 months. Unfortunetly, pups taken away from their momma this early most often than not develop behavioral problems that now you must deal with and train her out of. Biting/mouthing is one of the most common.

| I have given her goats milk and karo. I have dealt with puppies and kittnes before so this is not new to me just a little rusty I guess. I just cant see how people can be so horrible and untruthful for no reason. Thank you all for helping and listening to me vent. |

| Did she come with any paperwork ? that may have her birth date on it. Not that it is acurate but it's possible. |

| Yea, me too. Keep an eye to see that she is pooping on her own. If she's too young you'll have to stimulate her with a warm cloth. |
