Yorkie is shaking and subdued My sister's Yorkie is usually full of energy, always wanting attention or wanting to play. When I came to visit today, however, he followed us around kind of slowly and then kind of just stayed in the corner of the room we were in, he was visibly shaking and his tail down (covering his butt). My sister has been away a lot from him lately. She lives alone, just her and Sammy. Is this a sign of separation anxiety?? He didn't appear to be in pain (ie: didn't yelp or anything when we picked him up or touched his belly, back or legs) He perked up somewhat when my sister took him w/ her this time. Has anyone seen these type of symptoms before in their Yorkie?? |
Check his gums and if they are not that healthy pink color, it could be a case of hypoglycemia. Go ahead and stir some kayro syrup or granulated sugar in with his water and make him drink it. It won't hurt him, unless he drinks a ton -- which he probably won't though. He may just be a shyer yorkie who only gets rambunctious around his owner. My baby is kind of like that. If he seems ill, make sure he's eating too. If you can't force or handfeed him, take him to the vet. Look for signs that he's eaten and peed/pooped. If he hasn't done either, he could be nervous/seperation anxious and may need to be hand fed. |
