An x- pen would be good for little Gia. Do you guys have anyone who could come in and check on her? Since she is still recovering and is so young and tiny, it would be for the best if A family member or good friend could help you guys out. That is what i'd do.

Well our Grandpa lives here too. He is 89 yrs old though. I don't think it would be a good idea for him to hold her, or for her to have free roam with him watching her. He could hurt her possibly. When we have left the house, I put her in her cage even if he was here. He is too old to watch her.

Doctors orders were that she cannot use stairs and should be confined to a small area. Giavanna thinks she can climb the doggie stairs and go on our big bed. I had to take her off. We are all sleeping in the family room on the floor tonight together. Everyone we know works except for me. I just go to my classes. They are all online except the 2 on Wednesday. This would be the first time Gia was left alone that long ever.

Txgurl06 · 01-25-2009, 02:14 PM

something similar happened to me too. I was holding my sisters yorkie and she tried jumping out of my hands on the hard floor. i tried to catch him but he went over my back and it was too late. he his the floor right on his head. He screamed a couple of times and i grabbed him. he went limp in my are and unresponsive but still could breath a little and peed all over himself and me. Then he just stopped breathing and my stepdad put him on the ground and gave him mouth to mouth and he came back. all this time we were called the emergency vet. which you have to call this number for a nurse then they call the vet and then the vet calls you. well she said he could sleep and we let him. when he did try to walk it couldnt for a hour or so. and then the next morning he was normal. it was super crazy and i felt so bad! but these babies are so wiggly and it was truly a honest accident.

Wow that is crazy. I bet you felt bad. At least he was alright and you didn't have to bring him to the emergency vet. Giavanna was put on steroids and had to be there. Thanks for sharing your story.

Thank you...

Giavanna is back to her wild self. She is just as she was before. She is back to pushing Mia her bigger sister around, haha. She is such a barker, the total opposite of Mia. She has been barking like crazy and jumping around like a rabid rabbit, lol. I sing the song "Wild Thing" to her in the morning. If she knows I am awake she runs over to me and licks my face. She won't do this if I am sleeping still. So.. I pretend like I am asleep and see what she is getting into... then I sing really loud and annoying wild thing dum dum dum dum dum you make my heart sing dum dum dum dum... and you now the rest, but Giavanna will run up onto our bed and start licking me like crazy. It is soooooo cute.

My husband ended up taking our bed apart and putting our mattress on the floor. She can hop right up. We did this because we don't want her falling and hitting her head or anything. We just put the mattress down on the floor, no box spring so it is super close to the floor like 8 inches high. Today, twice she has done somersaults off of the bed when she was playing. I have never seen her do this before. She was fine very stable afterwards both times. She didn't seem dizzy or anything. It was really cute to see that, I was a little worried at first. Maybe we'll put her in the doggy olympics, lol.

Thanks everyone for asking how she is doing. We hope you are all well also!

XoXo & lots of Doggy Kisses

heatherlee143 · 01-25-2009, 07:11 PM

Giavanna wanted you all to see what a stinker she is. I just took this picture 5 minutes ago. I added one of Mia too. They both just had a bath
