Another question about my baby yorkie Hi again I forgot to mention baby ella has fleas. She is 7 weeks old and I did see one flea on her. Any one have any suggestions? Also, sometimes when she eats her back legs go up in the air. and sometimes when she is walking or playing i noticed she put one of her back legs up. She also bites and licks her back legs alot. any thoughts on why this is?? |
I would call the vet to see what to do about the fleas since she is so young. Good luck |
I would suggest you have the vet check for Legge-Calves-Perthes or Luxating Patellas. It also may be digestive issues, so I would have them run a full check. Revolution is a good recommendation for fleas+, but definitely have a vet input. Capstar is an immediate flea irradication, but I'm not sure how old they need to be before using it. Make sure you clean all bedding/carpet/clothing in the house or you will just reinfest. |
I would take her to the vet and usually they can recommend a good flea med in the right amount for such a young puppy |
The leg thing could be luxating patellas, so you need your vet to do a full check. Make sure you ask the vet what you can use for the fleas because I'm not sure how old they have to be before they can be put on advantage or revolution. Miko's on revolution also, and it's been great for him. |
