Why is my Chiweenie lethargic and unresponsive after a back bump?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Jace. I am concerned that he was experiencing an episode of low blood sugar. It is common in puppies as small as he is. If he is still acting so lethargic, I would recommend putting karo syrup (or maple syrup or honey) on his gums and he will need to see an emergency veterinarian. If he is back to normal now, monitor him closely and apply the syrup if you ever notice these signs in him again. Provide kibble for him at all times so that he never goes long between meals. Of course, something else could be wrong that your veterinarian could determine based in his exam. I hope this information helps!

Oh dear, poor Koko! This sounds like an emergency condition. Even though she just ate, rub some corn syrup on her gums in an attempt to increase her blood sugar in case this issue is related to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). She must then go to the nearest emergency vet immediately for evaluation because this may be a life threatening situation. I hope that all goes well!

If the sugar water is not working anymore then the cause for the vomiting and walking like a drunk is not hypoglycemia. This is very concerning and actually an emergency. You need to take Luna to a Pet ER for an exam and blood tests and respective treatment. Please take her there now.

If she is remaining sleepy, has poor balance or vomiting I would be concerned about a possible head injury and recommend she be assessed by a vet as soon as possible. Otherwise continue to monitor for food and fluid intake and ensure no rough play for the next 48 hours

I am concerned about these symptoms. I think you should get Poppy Seed checked out by a vet ASAP. They aren't consistent with any one disease process, but it is still concerning. Young, tiny breed dogs are prone to hypoglycemia, so I would feed her some honey or caro syrup (or place it in her cheek if she won't lick it) to help prevent hypoglycemia.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your puppy. I recommend placing some karo or maple syrup on her gums. Puppies can experience low blood sugar which will cause weakness. Then I recommend seeking emergency veterinary care right away. Her symptoms are worrisome and it is important to determine the cause so she can be treated. I hope this information helps.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would give a little Karo syrup on her gums and see if she will eat some dog food for you. See how she is after this. With her being so small, her blood sugar could be having difficulties regulating, especially if she is a picky eater or doesn't eat that much. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine her now as well and see if there is anything else underlying predisposing her to these episodes. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
