    You can buy a high-calorie food supplement from a vet’s office or most pet food stores. It would be a good idea to keep it on hand. To prevent it, feed her high-quality dog food, and give her smaller meals 3-4 times a day rather than 1-2 big meals, even when she grows up.

    Hypoglycemia is low blood sugar. Bring some doggie snacks with you so she’ll have something to munch on, she should be fine. Nothing a little food won’t fix.
