Gah! I've been stressing out a lot. Never owned a dog in my life so this is deffinitly a learning experience. They're not like hamsters or birds where you have to just keep thier cage clean and make sure they have water and food. He went to his first Vet appt when mother and brother in law were down (March 10th to be exact) he got his first vaccinations for parvo and such, but before that for like a week he was dragging his butt on the ground..I had no idea what that meant until he started pooping worms! And they were round worms, so they were long! Ewww! Lol So he got dewormed as well and hes been doing FANTASTIC since then....up until 2 nights ago. (March 16th) All morning and afternoon he was his normal playful self, but when 5pm rolled around he just started yelping in pain. For no reason it seemed. I was scared, so I got on facebook and my other favorite informational site "babygaga" and I was told to either give him puppy meds or take him into the after hours vet. The first thing that came to anybody's mind was the risk of him having parvo..wich didn't make any sense. He was eating ok and he wanted to play, he just looked and sounded like he was in pain. I was hoping to get him into the vet yesterday, but Buster was doing really good by then. He wasn't yelping, he was eating perfectly well and was a little more playful then the day before. So, I decided that since he has an appt for the 2nd round of vaccinations on saturday (the 20th) at 11 am that we could just wait. Today hes back to his normal self, besides acting nervous off and on. But I'm told that a chihuahua trait so....yea. I figure the yelping in pain was or is growing pains, or he pulled a muscle. Whatever it is I will for sure find out in 2 days. For now, he's perfectly fine.
Oh...and his cute floppy ears are no more. He's a true chihuahua now :(
Now
