What happens if a puppy drinks glucose?
Glucose is a simple sugar widely used to relieve low blood sugar, supply energy, and aid liver recovery. In moderation it quickly restores a puppy's energy, but if the puppy is not hypoglycemic, don't give it often — excess sugar causes obesity or high blood sugar/pressure. Large intake can cause big blood-sugar swings; a diabetic puppy needs urgent vet care if it ingests glucose.
Yesterday there was just a small red bump at the eye corner, and a day later a scab-like bump appeared on the nose — I don’t know what skin condition it is, and as a new owner I don’t know how to treat it.
Severe tear stains can irritate the skin under the eye, causing allergy, scabbing, and infection; avoid skin antibacterials near the eye, relieve the tear stains first, keep the area dry, and let scabs fall off. Tear fluid buildup can also cause conjunctivitis or keratitis, needing regular cleaning and eye drops. Adjust diet and consider a nasolacrimal check.
My Corgi is fairly fat; last night it was fine on a walk, but this morning it suddenly can’t walk and is trembling a bit
Sudden inability to walk has many causes, possibly neurological or skeletal disease: neuritis, distemper aftereffect, patellar luxation, hip dysplasia. Without distemper-like symptoms, rule that out. Also possible low blood sugar or low calcium, plus brain injury, blood clots, or intervertebral disc disease, often from trauma, aging, or obesity, causing lower-limb numbness and walking difficulty, even incontinence or muscle wasting. Any case needs examination; see a vet promptly.
