If by "micro Yorkie" you mean a tiny, undersized yorkie, I am sad to say that many breeds where the "breeder" pushes out the tiny or mini versions, have medical problems...liver issues being one of the more common ones. If you bought her at a pet store, or from someone advertising her as a "rare" yorkie due to her small size, then you may have a future of medical issues. Please discusss all this with your vet. |
| I hope you have taken your pup to the vet by now. I don't understand when it comes to small breeds some breeders think smaller is better, the quest for the smaller and smaller dog becomes an obsession. If the breed standard is 5-7 lbs then that's what the dog should be 5-7 lbs. A smaller dog is not a better dog!!
ANyone who has a small breed dog should always have nutrical on hand. Small breeds, especially young dogs are prone to low blood sugar which can rapidly be fatal. At this point this advice is too late for this episode but is you pup has recoverd please go to the pet shop and purchase a tube of nutrical, also called nurtistate. Karo syrup can be substituted in a pinch. I hope your puppy is doing well. Education is the key here. There is no such thing as "micro" or "tea cup" breed". These are terms used by breeders of unusually small and unusually unhealthy dogs. They are foisted off on the unsuspecting puplic as designer dogs. If people demanded dogs that met breed standards these unethical breeders would be forced to stop breeding these poor puppies. |
