His blood sugar dropped overnight. I'm not sure what's in the dextrose solution your vet gave you but you may be able to prevent this from happening again by giving him some just before you go to bed. Also, ask the vet if Nutri-Cal or some other product is available to you. Corn syrup also works well for blood sugar. He also needs to eat some protein after getting something for his blood sugar. He can't go on just the dextrose or any other kind of sugar solution alone.

He is very small but he has made it this far. Chances are good that he can get over this hump but he will need close monitoring. You may find you have to get up in the middle of the night to give him a small dose of dextrose or whatever you're using and a small meal with it. He is too small and weak now to let him go all night with nothing on his belly.

So very happy to hear you pup is doing better. Wish I'd had known about this site when Lolli was little. Never had a dog before,only cats. She is the first and the last.:animal36

Good morning everybody,
my baby stayed yesterday to the vet...we called him twice to ask how he is and vet told us that his condition was a little better and that he walked & eat a little. But vet said that he don't want to enthuse us because his condition can change anytime...I wish my little baby will make it and hope vet can keep him with him as long as possible...I think maybe i'll go today to see him so he can hear my voice that is familiar to him (fortunately he already has there his own bed to sleep in) ..

I just saw your thread today and read through all of the posts hoping to hear more good news about your little one! I can hear the love and care in your words! WoogieMan has given great advice. Nutri-cal has helped a great many pups going through similar experience. Following up with a protein source is so important too. Glad you are going to go in so he can hear your voice and know you are there for him. I will add you and your baby to my prayers! Please keep us updated on his progress!

Welcome to Yorkietalk!

I hope he grows strong and you will have a healthy puppy home again soon.

Awww; I'm sure he would love to hear your voice. It's always good to make sure they know they are loved.

Hoping he gets stronger ever day.

Wow just read the entire thread... poor baby! Maybe when he comes home it would be good to schedule a middle of the night feeding for him until he gets over being sick, and gets a litlle older... keeping you both in my prayers...

hi everybody...it's so nice to know that there are people that care..
My baby's vet is a sooo good man..went today (he said to me that i can go anytime i want) ,we wake up my baby..i think because of that he couldnt really stand up ,after a while he seat down. Talk to him the words i always use to say him.. I just read a article on the web about a rare dog disease that my vet say he hope he don't have this...it's called "carre "...i didnt like what i read...My baby is trying so hard..hope that he will not give up..will go to sleep now trying to stop thinking...

I will keep him in my prayers.

Αλεξάνδρα καλημέρα,
μόλις με ειδοποίησαν τα υπόλοιπα μέλη του forum για το πρόβλημά σου.
Έχω δύο Γιορκσάιρ 1,5 και 2 ετών.
Είχα πρόβλημα με εμετούς τον Αύγουστο και το αντιμετώπισα με primperan όπως ακριβώς σου είπε και εσένα ο κτηνίατρος.
Πρέπει να σου πω συμπληρωματικά ότι την πρώτη μέρα δεν πρέπει να δώσεις καθόλου φαί. Τη δεύτερη μέρα μόνο λίγο ρύζι (ένα κουταλάκι του γλυκού) και αν μέσα στις επόμενες ώρες δεν κάνει εμετό ξαναδίνεις άλλο ένα κουταλάκι. Την επόμενη μέρα δίνεις λίγο παραπάνω ρύζι και την τέταρτη μέρα δίνεις κοτόπουλο μαζί με ρύζι. Σε όλη τη διάρκεια της θεραπείας (περίπου μια εβδομάδα) δίνεις ελάχιστο νερό. Είναι δύσκολο γιατί το κουτάβι όλη την εβδομάδα ζητάει φαί και νερό σαν τρελό. Αλλά πρέπει να προσέξεις γιατί το ζητούμενο είναι να μπορέσει το στομάχι του να κρατήσει την τροφή. Επίσης πρέπει να ξέρεις ότι τα κουτάβια που πουλάνε τα pet shop στην Ελλάδα δεν είναι ποτέ δυο μηνών όπως λένε. Ο γιατρός μπορεί να υπολογίσει καλύτερα την ηλικία του. Επίσης για τα μάτια μπορείς να δοκιμάσεις να του τα καθαρίσεις με χαμομίλι που θα τα μαλακώσει και θα βοηθήσει να φύγει ο ερεθισμός.
Αφού ο γιατρός το παρακολουθεί από κοντά, μπορείς να είσαι πιο ήσυχη. Επίσης να ξέρεις ότι αφού το ξεπεράσει ζήτα από το γιατρό να σου δώσει μια πολυβιταμίνη για να του δίνεις καθημερινά. Εγώ τους έδινα calopet (δεν κυκλοφορεί πια, αλλά έχει βγει άλλο που το αντικατέστησε. Ο γιατρός το ξέρει) και επίσης τους έδινα κάθε μέρα λίγο μέλι για την υπογλυκαιμία
Δεν μπορώ να σκεφτώ κάτι άλλο αυτή τη στιγμή για να σε βοηθήσω, αλλά ότι κι αν χρειαστείς κάτι στείλε μου pm. Μπαίνω σχεδόν τέσσερις φορές την ημέρα στο forum και θα δω το μήνυμα σου άμεσα.

Hi everyone, sorry for posting in Greek, but I wanted to make my advise easier for Alexandra to understand now that she is in a difficult situation.
It won't happen again

Maria

Haha! I had no problem with it... I think it's pretty! Does the use of English 'pet shop' mean there's no Greek equivalent? The important thing is that she may understand better... Thank you for helping...


Alex... I hope you're feeling better and I hope your baby is doing better today....

Ha! Yes there isn't a Greek equivalent for Pet Shop :)

Alexandra hello,
just by giving the other members of the forum for your problem.
I have two Yorkshire 1.5 and 2 years.
I had a problem with vomiting in August and faced with primperan just as you said yourself the vet.
I must tell you further that the day should not give him any food. On the second day only a little rice (one teaspoon) and if in the next few hours not vomit revive another spoon. The next day you give a little more rice and the fourth day of giving chicken with rice. Throughout the course of treatment (about a week) give very little water. It's hard because the puppy all week asking food and water like crazy. But be careful because the aim is to allow the stomach to hold food. They should also know that the puppies they sell the pet shop in Greece are never as they say two months. The doctor can better estimate its age. Also on the eyes you can try to clean them with the chamomile that will soften and help get the soreness.
Once the doctor is monitoring closely, you can be more quiet. Also know that once you get over asking the doctor to give you a multivitamin to give the everyday. I gave them calopet (not move anymore, but has left other court replaced. The doctor knows) and also gave them a little honey every day for hypoglycemia
I can not think of anything else right now to help you, but if you need anything send me pm. I am nearly four times daily in the forum and I'll see your message immediately.

Maria

The translation is imperfect I suppose, but the advice you are giving is guaranteed to kill this puppy. What may work for an adult dog will not work for this pup. This is a very young pup that weighs only 18 ounces. It must have food and hydration very often or it will die.

I can tell that English is not Alexandra's first language, but her posts are understandable and I believe she understands the replies posted here. This pup is in a vet's care and we are trying to give her advice that will help her. That advice is not in conflict with her vet's advice. Please do not post again advising someone with a sick, young, very small puppy to withhold food and water.

If the translation program is wrong, please come back and re-post your advice in English. My post is based on the above translation.
