  2. Signs of Blood Sugar Issues: 1. Weakness or lethargy: A puppy with low blood sugar may appear tired, listless, and have difficulty standing or walking. 2. Trembling or shivering: Puppies experiencing hypoglycemia may exhibit uncontrollable shaking or shivering. 3. Loss of appetite: A sudden decrease in appetite can be an early indication that your teacup Chihuahua's blood sugar is dropping. 4. Disorientation or confusion: The puppy might look dazed or confused while trying to maintain balance. 5. Seizures or collapse: In severe cases of blood sugar issues, your puppy may have seizures or lose consciousness.
