| Nutri-Cal is good but I would put a spoon full of sugar into his bowl of water. When my old (long time ago) Pomeranian had hpoglycemic attacks that is what the vet advised me to do and it always worked!! Good luck! Hope all is well.

| While I wrote this thread TJ called an ER, we drove about 90mph with our hazards on.......we took him there ASAP.............PLEASE dont let anything be wrong with him..........he just got neutered 6 days ago, he still has stitches in, he gets them out tomorrow..............OK...........we just got back, right before we left, Tyson jumped off the couch he seemed OK, so I got up to get some clothes on and he wants someone by him all the time, so he got up walked and the swaying started..........not like seziure activity, a sway, and then reaaaaaaaalllllll slowwwwwwwww his 2 little back legs just slid right out from under him..............I pray that it is what you guys have experienced............really I dont want it to be anything, but the things going thru my mind, blood sugar would be a blessing, I am so scared it is going to be something more...........Ok at the vet, they looked him over, DR took him in the back..............put us in a room, about 10min they brought him into us, vet said he looks good, little unsteady, Tyson did walk around kinda woobly, vitals are all normal............we talked about different things it could be, he did mention bloodsugar..............he is 6months old and over 8 pounds..he never had this when he was smaller and he ate normal all day and drank, we3 dont think he got into anything, DR is keeping him overnight........we are so freaked, he just had his surgey and now this, they are gonna have to poke him for blood AGAIN, put him in a crate, they did say they would put him bacj in ICU so DR and nurses will watch for any werid activity.........thanks for your threads, does the rocking thing sound like what your puppies did, I am a human nurse and I guess I thought a hyperglycemic episode would mimic more of a seziure, human like I guess,maybe I should just stick with humans and leave puppy health to the vet people..........any advice will do.......we are waiting for vet to call us with blod work results...........thanks |

| I'm so sorry your little one isn't feeling well. I hope everything is ok now. My first thought was low blood sugar but I'm no vet. I'm glad you got him to the vet adn he's being watched carefully. He will be in our prayers

| I thought I wrote an update before I fell asleep in bed sitting upright, but after re reading my thread I guess either I deamed that I wrote it or it is somewhere in PC land.............so............the vet did call last night about 45 min after we got home last night and he said his bloodwork is all normal..........I was so excited, then the nurse in me kicked in and then I was like uuugghhh............then what it is? A part of me wanted it to be something that showed up, something we can fix or something we can treat.........and now.......nothing......so what now????????? Vet says he will keep him and he will callus before he goes home...........I sat up for awhile and went over in my head NOW WHAT??? Nothing in the bloodwork so where are we going from here, per the vet he will be watched and we can get him when we get up...............not to sure about that...my puppy should not be swaying after he gets up from sleeping...........It is alomst 8am and the vet just called..........good news................but is it?Tyson was OK thru the night or the 5 hours he was there, he ate a bit of food they took him out and they said he was fine, let him hang out in the back with the nurses and vet said he was more playful, so vet says he wants to keep him for some of the day and we will go rom there........Go where? Where do you go from here........I am soooooooo glad he is better, but what is wrong him? Of couse me and my fiance have to work tonight and we cant get out of it and I explained that to the vet and he said no problem, this same vet is back in tonight and me and my fiance will be off at like 11pm and the vet said it was best to leave him there and come after we get off work and he will go from there.Now Tyson is due to get his stitches out tomorrow at his vet. We like his usual vet but are getting sick of the staff, were talking abuit switching after Tysons last visit, but I guess I will take him back there for his follow up and then figure out who I will use.............We feel like crap for leaving him there........but I am to upset to leave him alone why we work......I want to know what is going on with him, maybe a new vet will have seen something like this before, What the heck is going on? I want to have a healthy puppy, I I cant watch Ty be sick, what do I do........get more tests to see what is wrong,but what test do I get??? So many questions and I am just sick about this. We love him so much. Thank you to everyone, just logging on and seeing that you guys took a min to send well wishes helps. Please send good thoughts are way...............he is such a sweet puppy, so full of life and a very good boy.........I will write more later, I am so tired..........THANKS |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Glad to hear he is better. CAli had a similar episode when she was about 6-7 months old. SHe woke up from a nap at about 9 pm and fell down the 2 steps we have by the bed and then was so wobbly when she walked. She was walking like her feet were hitting the floor before she expected them too. Hard to explain but anyway off to the ER vet 5 minutes away. I had already given her syrup to get her blood sugar up but the vet couldn't tell if it ws hypoglycemia since her sugar level was ok from the syrup I had given her at home. She had had 2 episodes prior to this and they seemed different. Cali wstayed overnight and seemed fine the next day and never had another episode. We were never sure she didn't get into meds since I had had her ay my elderly parents apartment that day but we could not find any evidence of it. So hopefully he will be fine.

| If the blood work came back fine, maybe him jumping off the couch & still having the stitches in hurt. Sorta knocked the wind out of him, although he seemed fine. I'm sure since it hasn't been that long since he had sugery, it's still sore. They say the bounce back quick but, I know if it were me, I'd be walking around doing certain things, although some things like straining would probably still hurt. Hope Tyson is felling better soon.
