Trisven13 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 With only 4 days to go before Lola moved in with us she was diagnosed with hyperglycemia today. Apparently it is quite common in toy breed puppies and her blood test showed a reading of less than .5 which was lower than my vet had ever seen. She was treated with loads of glucose but didn't respond and it was decided that the kindest thing was to put her to sleep. I can't believe it and don't know how I'm going to tell my daughter. To make it worse hyperglycemia is apparently caused by her pancreas not working properly, her Nan is currently dying with pancreatic cancer. Run free Lola - I was so looking forward to living with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
