I have a 9 day old shorkie puppy and she keeps crying alot and i don't have any idea whats wrong any advise???

Question

I really am afraid that she may either have fluid in her lungs or is constipatied b/c since she was born i've only seen her go poo like once but i could just not be paying enough attention but i'm not sure. I really could use some real help.

Answer 1

What are you doing with a 9 day old puppy and where is her mother? You need to get some professional help with her if you want her to survive. Go see a vet ASAP.

Answer 2

Giving him the tylenol was a mistake. Tylenol is toxic for dogs. Dosing medication is based on weight- so if your newborn yorkie weighs OUNCES you just gave him WAY more tylenol than he needed if you weren't seriously careful with the dose even if it wasn't a REALLY bad idea to give dogs (especially a ten day old baby) tylenol. Eight puppies is a huge litter for a yorkie. It isn't uncommon for puppies to be stillborn or die for unknown causes. A woman I know bred her papillon- three out of the four puppies in the litter died. Another woman I know had three puppies die in a litter of eleven. You are doing the right thing by bottle feeding him and try to keep him warm. Try to make sure he is feeding off mama and the bottle feedings can also supplement that since he will get important nutrients and antibodies from mom. You don't say how much you are feeding him, or how often. That can make a big difference- usually newborns at the hospital are fed every hour or two minimum. Without seeing him, its hard to say why he would be crying though. Good luck and plz don't give any more medicine without consulting your vet! X_X

Answer 3

The mother needs to be licking the butt end to encourage the new puppy to defecate. You can get a hot washcloth and do that for her if she's a new mother, just wipe at the area under the puppy's tails till they poop and clean that up with a kleenex.

Is she getting enough milk from the mother? Has the mother stopped producing milk?

Answer 4

It may be because she is missing the rest of the family. If possible get a blanket & rub it over the mother, & put it in your puppies basket, may calm her down. You can also get heating pads for under the blanket & I have heard of people putting clocks there too, to repilcate the heat beat of the mum. If she's not pooing & your worried, call your vet, they should be only too happy to help.

Answer 5

Aww. She's very young. She's lonely and upset. Sleep with her if possible, or get her a stuffed animal or peice of carpet for a 'comforter' as for the pooing, you may not see it or she may eat it. some people say to use a warm wet washcloth on her butt.

Answer 6

she most likly is eating her poo. that are is her mom still around if so moms eating the poo thats her job.keep and eye on her is she eating well. if moms not around she will cry for mom you can place a stuffed toy near her you can place a wind up clock under the stuffed toy so it sounds faintly like a hart beat, so the pup will think it is mommy.

Answer 7

First of all, the puppy is way too young to be taken from her mother and given to an unexperieced person. Puppies at the age depend on their mother for everything. To be fed, to be cleaned, to be kept warm and to go the bathroom. The pup is probably crying because she misses her litter mates too.

Answer 8

There are so many things that can be wrong. At this point, you should probably get her to a vet to have her checked out.
