Revised 2/14/2008
Hypoglycemia
This is a central nervous system disorder caused by low blood sugar. It
occurs mainly in Toy Breeds, between 6 and 12 weeks of age. Stress is the
leading cause.
The signs are those of listlessness and depression and are followed by
muscular weakness, tremors (especially the facial muscles) and later,
convulsions, coma and death. The entire sequence is not always seen and
may simply appear to be depressed, or he may be wobbly, jerky and may go
into a coma.
Hypoglycemia can occur without warning, when a puppy is placed into a
new home, or while being shipped. Symptoms might appear after a puppy
misses a meal, chills or becomes exhausted from too much playing or has
a digestive upset. These upsets place an added strain on the energy
reserves of the liver and bring on symptoms (if the dog is susceptible).
Treatment
Begin at Once! Treatment is directed at restoring blood levels of glucose.
Give the puppy a mouthful of Nutri-
cannot swallow it all at once, it will begin to absorb under the tongue and
should start bringing him back to a conscious state so that will be able to
swallow the rest. When he can swallow, give him water (about 1 cc at a
time so he doesn't choke). Continue to give him Nutri-
every 10 minutes until he is conscious and moving about. CALL US
IMMEDIATELY!! If we cannot be reached call your Veterinarian. If the
puppy does not respond, call your Veterinarian immediately!! The puppy
will need Sub-
about 2 days for hydration. He may also need some antibiotic to combat
secondary infections that can arise from the lowered immune system
that results form hypoglycemia.
If you do not have Nutri-
substitute this with honey or syrup until you can purchase Nutri-
As soon as the puppy begins to recover, give him some canned food and
try to get him to eat. You will also need to begin some Pepto-
him from getting bad diarrhea. The large dose of Nutri-
probably cause some diarrhea to occur, but is usually self limiting.
To prevent recurrent attacks make sure the puppy eats at regular
intervals. He should have dry food available at all times and should be
fed canned food at least 2 times a day. A daily vitamin should be given,
(Nutri-
added to the diet.
Owners of toy puppies should not allow them to become overtired or
chilled. Play time should be limited and controlled to prevent undue
stress and tiring. Hypoglycemia must be offset by frequent feedings. A
puppy who does not eat frequently, for whatever reason is heading for
trouble.
WE DO NOT GUARANTEE AGAINST THIS CONDITION.
Each puppy will go home with a tube of Nutri-

Vaccine & Bordetella Reactions
Distemper Parvo LA and Corona Virus Vaccine
Although these vaccines are safe and effective, occasionally pets may experience
one or more of the following conditions due to vaccines. Chihuahuas however being
so small are more likely to have a reaction than a larger dog. Please keep a very
close eye on your pet after they have received vaccines. If your Chihuahua exhibits
any of these symptoms, give them a little Nutri-
Mild lethargy
Muscular soreness -
Decreased appetite
Mild Fever
Mild vomiting or diarrhea
These mild reactions usually do not last more than 24 hours. If your pet exhibits any of these symptoms please call your Vet immediately do not wait to see if they go away!
Rarely, pets may experience more serious conditions soon after vaccination.
Swelling of the face or ears -
Hives or significant itching -
Difficulty breathing -
Significant lethargy
Significant vomiting or diarrhea
Fluid build up or infection at the injection site
If your pet exhibits any of these signs, bring him to your Vet immediately! He or she may need medication to treat the reaction. Please contact your local Emergency Veterinary Service if a problem occurs after your Vet’s regular business hours.
Occasionally, pets that have received injectable vaccinations develop a localized
reaction indicated by a small, hard lump under the skin where vaccines were administered
(usually anywhere from dime to quarter size). Please have your Vet recheck your
pet if this occurs. These lumps may take 1-
Rabies
Very seldom, pets that have received a rabies vaccination may develop a small bald spot over the vaccination site. Please contact your Vet if this occurs. These spots are merely cosmetic and may be permanent in rare cases. Treatment may help reduce this possibility.
Bordetella
Pets receiving the nasal drop form of Bordetella (Kennel Cough) vaccination may experience
a upper respiratory reaction approximately 3 days later and as early as 24 hours.
Again this is a general statement made about dogs. Chihuahuas are more likely to
become sick from the nasal Bordetella than the injectable. My personal experience
with Chihuahuas has been that 9 out of 10 times the nasal Bordetella has been administered,
they come down with Kennel Cough. Since I have elected to have injectable Bordetella
administered, I have not had one Chihuahua get sick with Kennel Cough. Chihuahua
puppies can get very sick , very fast from the nasal Bordetella. If you notice them
being letharic or sneezing after the Bordetella vaccination call your Vet immediately
and give Nutri-
