My puppy is wobbly after a seizure. What helps with low blood sugar?

Question

My puppy had a seizure on Saturday. We take her back and forth from my house to my boyfriends a lot. When she had the seizure we called the vet and they said it was her sugar so we been giving her a little bit of sugar water twice a day, she’s been fine since. But tonight she’s very wobbly. What can I do to help? I’m very worried! Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Female | unspayed | 4 months and 6 days old | 1lb

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would give a little Karo syrup on her gums and see if she will eat some dog food for you. See how she is after this. With her being so small, her blood sugar could be having difficulties regulating, especially if she is a picky eater or doesn't eat that much. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine her now as well and see if there is anything else underlying predisposing her to these episodes. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
