See thread http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...ml#post3826052

Since November 2011 he has only put on 454 grams and the vet was shocked.

He does eat everything we offer him and he eats alone in his crate to stop the other three interfering with him.

The vet gave him a thorough going over along with an eye check.

The news was not good at all.

The vet believes that although his eyes are functioning they are not seeing.
He explained that the pupil can react to light but in certain illnesses the eye does not send the message to the brain.

He says this can be caused by a problem with the liver and this has to be investigated thoroughly.

He has warned us to expect the worst possible situation which I have to admit shook me in a big way.

The vet said that if the problem is what he suspects then he will have to recommend the little man is put to rest.

He explained that whilst he is not violent right now if the problem is proven then he will be more than violent in the near future and will be nothing less than downright dangerous.

I know all yorkie owners will understand how Joan and I feel right now this little man is just a baby of 8 months and we have to face the most terrible decision any pet owner can face.

The vet says he thinks the brain damage has been caused by a liver problem or a birth problem but it may well be a different thing. The little man goes in to hospital tomorrow we hope just for the day to have tests done but we have been warned it may be longer.

I will post any further information as soon as we know anything.

oh my gosh B I am so sorry This brought tears to my eyes poor little guy.
8 months is way to little time on this earth. I hope and pray they find it is something else today and this was all a big mistake. And he will be fine. Please keep us updated and sending prayers your way for you all.

Seriously though, hope she is OK.

[horsnaround]

I hope so to. I miss her

[EarthAngel]

I Win...and I also hope Betty is ok.

[bWY39]

This is worrying me now as Betty we all know was living in this thread. It is just not like her to be away this long.

We may be getting concerned over nothing more than a computer breakdown but we can't help thinking can we.

I just hope she returns soon and remembers she can be "winning" but not "win".

Come on Betty get ya butt back in here......

You don't "win"

You can't "win"

You can only "win" when the thread closes.

In the meantime

You can be "winning" but never for long.

So there.....
