Here's a tip for anyone whom might run into this problem. It really does sound like hypoglycemia, and the treatments and wording make it sound MORE like hypoglycemia to be honest. No one will likely cover it unless you show it is the result of another problem like a liver shunt, as alot of the time it boils down to care. I have also seen this time and time again with hypoglycemic cases. Just because the poster made a point to say her vet says he doesn't THINK it was hypoglycemia, doesn't mean it wasn't, doesn't even mean he said it. So, know EXACTLY what special care a very small puppy needs, such as the supplements which would be given, morning, bed time, after play time, and before anything we KNOW is going to stress our puppy out to name a few.Karo syrup is more of an emergency type thing in my book, the supplements actually have vitimins and stuff. Eating is essential to keeping the blood sugar up as well. And, most of all, VERY IMPORTANT, PAY ATTENTION. If you intend to hold another responsible for the death of your pet, GET A NECROPSY. If the pet dies at home, you must still get it to the vet immediately to have this done. Basically, you must prove cause of death, you must PROVE they are responsible. Guesses from the vet will most likely not be good enough. Your word will not be good enough. Vague results will most likely not be good enough. Have the necropsy done, and any testing beyond that will prove a DEFINITIVE cause of death, if you intend to have another party be held responsible. And make sure you present them with the paperwork and all vet records leading up to the necropsy, and those of the necropsy result. In other words, a complete medical history.

This store wsd closed in Jan 2006. The Mall was torn down and rebuilt. The owner of that store did not chose to reopen it. There can be no results from this issue.
