Hi Everyone. I am not doing too well right now, with weight loss or otherwise. My beloved Yorkie Minnie passed away, with the 4 puppies she was carrying. She seemed fine Monday night, but on Tuesday morning was very lethargic & kept vomiting. We took her to the vet & found she had gestational hypoglycemia. Her blood sugar level was barely visible on the lab's chart. They kept her overnight to observe her give her a glucose IV. Wednesday morning they called & said she had convulsions in the night & 3 of her puppies had passed away, & she was also still very sick. The 4th puppy hadn't been born & they didn't know if it was alive. That afternoon around 3 or 4 PM they called again & said that both Minnie & the 4th puppy had passed away. We are still in shock & grieving. We picked Minnie & her puppies up at the vet's on Thursday & buried them in our yard next to our other two furbabies, Holly who died several years ago, & Mollie our Yorkie who passed away on 9-11-13, just 8 months ago. We bought 2 lovely peonies from a local grower at their annual garden show yesterday, & Hubby planted them on the graves. They are lovely & make the graves less harsh looking until I can wood burn the markers for them. I was just going to burn Mollie's marker, & now I have to make another one for Minnie. Mollie was 10 years old & in poor health, so her passing was a little easier to bear. But Minnie was barely 1 year old & we just got her in November. Our little male Yorkie General is also devastated, & keeps looking around for his Minnie. It is heartbreaking, yet somewhat comforting that they are all resting peacefully in a beautiful spot in a corner of our yard. I've only lost a few ounces which is surprising since I'm not eating as much as usual, but haven't been watching carbs or calories much either. A neighbor we talked to has a 3 yr old female Yorkie & wants to breed her once then have her spayed. We've known him for years as a customer at the gas station but didn't know he had a Yorkie. He asked if we would consider breeding our General with his little female, & I said we would if we can have the pick of the litter. He quickly agreed & gave us his phone number to arrange for General to meet his little girl dog. We were going to wait awhile before getting another dog, but this is a good opportunity & pretty amazing how it happened, so we will call him soon & see what happens from there after our doggy meet-&-greet. Prayers & good thoughts are greatly appreciated.
