Hi all i am wondering if my yorkie is having teeth problem or what... ok thing is that she is 4.5 years old i just got her a month ago and she was in a bad shape i took her to the vet and she had dry skin , infarction in her paws and eyes poor baby she wear on 3 meds for 3 weeks and than i went back to the vet and he sad she is ok now. However now 2 weeks later she is scratching her face or mouth and crying .. i go over to her and look at her mouth but i donīt see anything What can this be do i go back to the vet or what iīm lost what this can be :confused: |
and just now she is throwing up :confused: I gave her wet food sea food mix one can this mean she can be allertec to fish or sea food :( need some help yt |
Possible...to be on the safe side please call her vet. And take her in if you are still not sure. Better safe than sorry. Hope she gets better soon. |
I think I would take her back to the vet. It might be allergies. |
thank you for responding the vet is closed now so i cant She is sleeping now but is not her self :( |
Yes please take her to the vet. Grains in pet food can cause allergies. Check the 1st two ingredients and make sure they are some form of meat product like fish, lamb etc. Good luck! |
it was wet food and it is sea food mix have fish and shrimps e.c.t ;) I donīt have er her i live in st.johnīs canada what can i do |
I would take her to the vet. Has she possibly gotten something caught around one of her teeth? Has she had her teeth cleaned? She could have a bad tooth, but my first guess is allergies; my second guess is teeth. |

I may be wrong but I thought it was not good to give dogs shellfish? Is there an emergency number for her vet? He may let you give her benedryl. Just in case. |

It really sounds like an allergy the way you described her getting sick like that. First make sure she is drinking lots of water. If she isn't, put some water in a syringe and force feed it to her. She will get dehydrated quickly from throwing up since she is so little. Second, you can give her some benadryl, but you need to know her exact weight. Get the childrens diphenhydramine liquid it is 12.5mg / 5ml and find a small syringe (at any pharmacy) that measures to 0.1ml. You can give her 0.1ml per every pound of weight she is. For example a 3.3 lb yorkie would give them 0.3ml of benadryl. You can give it to her twice a day. If the first dose gets her to stop feeling yucky and throwing up then you have discovered an allergy. Giving her the benadryl won't hurt her if she doesnt have an allergy though either so don't be scared to give it to her. If its not an allergy it won't do anything for her. Then you can take her to the vet when they open and try an figure something else out if that didnt work. But please make sure she gets fluids aka water in her system! Good luck! Give us an update when you can. |
I found a vet on call and Lilly is fine he did not know what it was but gave her pain meds and some fluid and she was fin after that :D I am never going too give her sea food of any kind after this Lilly scared me good tho :rolleyes: |
i'm wondering if any of u have had your yorkie tested for allergy's and how much it cost ? Lilly has a vet appointment in 3 weeks and iīm thinking if itīs a good idea to have her tested :) |
Just to give you a "heads up" about allergy testing-if it is a food allergy, the only reliable test is by elimination. You need to start out with one "novel" protein, which you know she has never eaten before( like venison, for example, or rabbit) and one carb (like rice, or oatmeal). Your vet should be able to explain it to you.Also, to let you know-this is a long process that last for about 12 weeks. You can't give your baby ANYTHING to snack on other than her food, no flavored meds, chewies, anything like that. Blood tests don't really reveal anything as reliable as elimination diets, and it can be expensive. Best of luck to you and your baby! |
