Our Yorkie was bitten Our 9 week old Yorkie baby, Yogi, was bitten this morning by an older male Yorkie in our family. We only have the two Yorkies and Bodhi has taken much time adjusting to the new pup. We have had Yogi since 7 weeks and today was the first time that Bodhi bit him. Yogi has been very lethargic after been playful and starting to explore on his own this morning. We can see no broken flesh but when we touch one side of his face he yelps with pain. He has eaten, drunk water, urinated and defecated since the attack but has been rather unresponsive otherwise. Should we see a vet or should we just give him time to recover?

Oh my Goddess... well I'm a worry wort! I take Ares God of War (lol I know) to the vet for everything... He's now 3 months and when we first received him I gave him a little too much Nutri-sat and he went bonkers for an hour! My vet was closed and the er vet is an hour away. Needless to say he's fine I was just over reacting! If you pup is acting differently, way too tired, I would give the vet a ring. Better safe than sorry! I hope your baby feels better!! Btw we have a one year old boxer, and Tank is very clumsy... Ares has alot of energy and it does take a while for the whole family to adjust! Good luck! |
Yes, definitely take him to the ER vet. Bite wounds can close up quickly and cause infections from the germs from the mouth. A puppy Yogi age is especially vulnerable to stress. |
