| Not Eating by himself Hello everyone, this is the first post so I hope I am doing it right. I have a 10-1/2 week Yorkie. when I brought him home on Monday he was doing wonderful eating, drinking etc.. wed went to vet for first looks was fine by Thur late afternoon was not eating well. Fri gave baby food he ate that but I stated noticing that thing were not right first thing sat took him to see vet had very low sugar and temp was low. After being treated was good talk to vet if happened again take to emergence was hand feeding him all day doing fine but by Sat morning not good. went to ER very low sugar again. They have run a lot of test from provo to liver stunt and stool sample for worm etc.. but so far everything seams to come back good. they told me that they are double checking for the liver. please can anyone tell me if they have had this happen to them that the puppy will not eat on his own. he is still at the vet ER and is being feed every 2 hours so that he is getting the nourishment that he need. is there something that we are not seeming |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Welcome. Sorry to hear about your little one. Hopefully, he will start eating better. Did they do a bile acid test to check for liver shunt? If every thing checks out normal he may just be a picky eater. My Cali wouldn't eat when I got her and went hypoglycemic a few times. I had to feed her every 3-4 hours even during the night. The only food she would eat were those little tins of Cesar's dog food. I eventually got her eating a good dog food. Now at almost 9 years old she is a little chow hound. She was diagnosed with a very mild liver disease at 8 months old but she doesn't need any treatment for it. I hope your little guy starts eating.
