| Put this in the health or emergency forum and you will get help. Lots of the members have tiny yorkies but there are not many up this early on Sunday. This is what I know: Hypoglycemia from the book head to toe yorkies that is like my bible What you will see in erms of symptoms in your yorkie is listlessness a limp body attitude, inability to walk , loose stools. This is because the dog has literally run out of fuel. There is nothing left in the body to process and to use as energy. The best thing to do thing that you can do is feed the dog something that will help and not upset him more. Plain steamed or cooked rise. Also boil some chicken and feed the yorkie that. In the baby food dept in the grocery store....chicken sticks would help and not upset him further. Call an emergency vet and get their opinion and get and get their hrs but do this immediately.

| Do you have Nutrical in the house?? That would offset the high level of insulin. Have lots of water available.

| Well then read my other two posts. The food I mentioned will take the place of the nutrical but don't feed other foods. Call the emergency vet and see what they say. My yorkie is over 6 lbs and I never had this problem

| Good then cut it in very tiny pieces and make sure there are no bones. Are you alone there?? If you have some white rice throw it in the same water after the chichen has boiled at least a half hour. You are doing fine and I'm quite sure this will help. Wish there were more on here that have had this happen but I trust this book with my dog's life.

| I posted the link to this thread in the "emergency" forum so others see it if anyone is around. It says 6 are there but they could be ones with problems too. I'll stick around and just keep your baby warm while the chicken boils and I'm praying all will be fine. Hugs, Joan

| Once he has some chicken, I think you will see even more of a change but I would keep a close eye on him today. You were right to worry since this can be very serious. I was glad to help.
