When I picked him up from my boyfriends house he was on the verge of dying. Extreme weakness, lifeless little body, his legs were sort of stiff. I rushed him to the vet and they said he suffered from a low sugar crash(hypoglycemia). Out vet suggested we give him a small syringe of Light Karo Syrup whenever he has one of those crashes again. They also suggested we feed him every hour once we brought him home. But upon our returning him, he won't eat a lot(we feed him eukanuba and the cans the vet gave us), and we even tried blending the food and feeding small amounts through another syringe. He's had one crash since we brought him home, but quickly resolved that with the syrup. Is there any other way to get him to eat? and drink his water? (hes also .8 lbs, if that makes a difference) (btw, the people we got the puppy from said he was about 8 wks, and after i told them about the crash, they said he was about 2-8 wks, and don't even know when he was born)
