Dog shaking so hard it can't drink? Help

A Yorkie is shaking so uncontrollably that it can't do anything else. It is also licking it's lips extremely. I need some ideas fast as to what might be causing this. It's my daughter's little dog, anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for the replies. It's a very young athletic dog, and they are trying to get ahold of a vet right now, but the dog is now having seizures. This is a replacement dog for one that they lost to an accident. She has 4 young children so this had better have a good turn out for their sakes. Thanks again.

give 2 baby asprin cover it so it is still and quiet will have to be put on doggie downers probably typical for these little dogs

Well so much for good vet. He is supose to be a good vet but just preached to them about not calling him when he wasn't there usual vet and bothering him on a sunday night. God has to love people like that becouse no body else will.
Now we have a dog looking like it is going to die and a husband ranting at a vet over the phone.

Yorkies

I have a buddy that has one of those little dogs. It also has problems like this. His vet told him it is common for the breed but I cant remember what kind of meds its on.

Posted by lynnsmith on 01-17-2011 02:02 AM:

Oh that Vet is a real jerk!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try the nearest animal hospital, there usually open or have a emergency vet to call on there machine.

I speak coming from working in that very field I hope you find the young dog help and soon could be several reasons for this!

Posted by Rocketman55 on 01-17-2011 02:06 AM:

Give the dog Karo syrp or something close to that. Low sugar seizures are common in this breed. Get it in the dog as soon as possible. This may buy you a few hours until you can get him to your vet.

Thanks Don I really appreciate it. Before I could call him they got ahold of doctor Kinkade and there on there way over to his office. Sure hope they don't loose the little thing. They had a little min pin and it got into the trash while they were gone and suffocated in a pringles potato chip can while they were gone. Not a pretty sight for a woman and 5 kids to come home to. The oldest kid is 10 year old girl a set of 8 year old girls a 4 year old boy and a 1 year old boy. I could only imagian the scream and cries as each go into the house. So her father in law got this little dog as a replacement.

what the update on your daughters little yorkie hpoe things turned out good for yall

Posted by Okie Dawg on 01-17-2011 02:39 PM:

It was epileptic fits and seized for about 2 hours by the time they found a vet and got it there and the vet was able to get it to stop. It was resting last we heard last night but haven't gotten a report today yet. I will let you know when I do.

Posted by hillbilly56 on 01-17-2011 02:54 PM:

yorkie

thats good to hear hope they got some meds that will help its hard cause theses little lap dogs get to be like your kids and its a heartbreaking expernice for little kids so lets hope everything turms out good for the little ones sake take care

Posted by Okie Dawg on 01-17-2011 03:19 PM:

Thanks Hillbilly, I just talked to my daughter and she said the vet said it was twitching this morning. Not went into a siezure yet though. He hit it with a lot of phenabarbitol last night among other things. We will be really lucky if it siezeing that long didn't do a lot of damage. All we can do is hope for the best at this point and a vet bill that doesn't break the bank. Not much else you can do when it is the kids little play mate. That little crack head is the only thing I ever saw that could keep up with all 5 kids all day and be happy to do it.

MY DAD HAD A WEINER DOG ONCE THAT WOULD DO THIS AND I WAS TALKING TO MY FRIEND SHANE GROVES OF THE BLAZER LIGHT COMPANY ONE DAY ON THE PHONE AND THE DOG STARTED HAVING FITS AND I WAS TELLING SHANE AND HE TOLD ME TO GIVE THE DOG A TEASPOON OF MAPLE SYRUP A WEEK!!! TRY THIS METHOD IT WORKS BELEIVE IT OR NOT!!
