911 someone please help I noticed that My 4 pound yorkie was kind of dragging one of her back legs about 20 minutes ago, shes now walking fine but her stomach is bright red and then it will go back to normal, and then red again. She is shaking a little and her stomach is hard, she whimpers once in a while..PLEASE HELP! |
I can't help, sorry... but try posting this under sick and emergency! Maybe someone will be there who might have an idea! |
I dont know whats wrong but i think you should definitely call your vet ASAP |
No answers here...but I hope she's alright. More information...has she pooped today? Could something have bitten her...a bug? Does she feel warm, with a fever? Maybe you should consult your vet or ER. |
Sorry I can't think of what would cause her stomach to go red and then not and go back. Is it possible she fell and bruised her belly or something like that. Does she let you touch her tummy? I would call the vet and run it by them. Please keep us posted. |
How is she doing? Did you get a hold of anyone? |
How is she doing? |
I can't help either. This doesn't sound to good. I would definitely call your vet ASAP. I hope anything will be alright. Please let us know. |
you should take her to your vet ASAP!!!! I know it's great to post for help in these threads but somethinglike this that could be life threatning you should contact or go to a vet imediatly.!!! I reall hope this doesn'r come acroos harsh or rude it's not my intention but i think vet care surpasses advice at this point. Hope every thing is ok please update us. |
I am praying that your baby will be ok.:hands:..pls keep us updated when you can! |
Could it possibly be her bladder...is she peeing? OMG, I hope she has taken this baby to a vet and that's why she's not posting. |
I would take her to the vet. |
I would take her to the ER vet asap!!! |
I think you should call your vet immediately. |
Update! Thanks everyone..I posted this while I was on the phone with the ER vet. I dont trust many vets but my own and he isnt ER so I was forced to take my baby to a place i HATE. He tried to draw blood from her NECK, she freaked out as did I. I requested that the blood he drawn from her LEG! I cried i felf so bad, Ive NEVER heard of anyone doing this!...It ended up that due to her false pregnancy she is producing a lot of milk and her body needed a lot of calcium. So she seems a lot better and she will be getting calcium 3 times a day for a while. Thanks to everyone that tried to help us! |
Sorry to hear about the vet problem! I'm glad your baby is well! I hope the rest of you weekend goes a lot better. |
I am so relieved to hear she's okay. Calcium, huh? That would make her belly hard and red? As long as she's okay, that's what really matters. Give her an extra hug from me and Winston! |
sounds wierd huh.. Im not 100% satisfied with the answer I got..But thats the only 911 vet close so Ill have to wait it out. Her belly is still red and shes still a little shakey..I just pray that shes ok..The vet said the redness will go away slowly and she'll start acting normal..We shall see... |
thank you I get so nervous when somethings wrong with my yorkies..I dont have kids..so they are like my babies! |
Hopefully that will make her more comfortable. |
Just out of curiosity... You said she is going through afalse pregnancy right? Are her nipples really large? Also the glands around the nipples is that what is hard and red? That may help with a breeder to tell you a little more. Iam glad you went to the vet:) |
no.. Her stomach is red..Ive had many litters of pups..This is our first false pregnancy..She does have milk..but its her stomach thats red. |
Taking blood from the neck is done when the dogs bp is low or the vet can not find a good vein. the neck is the best place to do it then. I hope your pup is ok. |
hhmm He didnt even try to find a vein first, I didnt like it..maybe thats how some people do it but I wont be going back. Good to know that though. |

.. Not that i know of..She was perfectly fine until about an houe before going to the vet. The vet said her calcium was a little low but not in a danger zone and Ill get the full results tuesday from her blood. |
So is she eating, peeing and pooping? |
yeah Yeah shes doing all of that. Shes on my lap sleeping now |
Great, that's always a good sign of health. I can understand that low calcium could cause muscle spasm...hence the limp and shakiness. But I don't understand the redness and hardness of her tummy. Maybe the vet will have more answers next week. |
Brooke has to have blood drawn monthly because she has to have a CBC done before her chemo treatments. They always take it from her neck. They told me that in tiny dogs they don't like to use their legs much because they can collapse those tiny veins and then you will not be able use their legs for IV's. I was freaked out about it too at first until I learned why they were doing it!! I hope all your little girl needs is calcium... Take care. |
