So, I'm a CPS social worker, and apparently my coworker saved this tiny puppy from being drowned by a 13 year old (13 year olds are basically sociopaths). My coworker was basically in tears about it when she got back to the office, and I was the only animal person in the building. She is a teacup chihuahua, theoretically. She is about the size of a runty guinea pig. I've had her for about two hours, she ate some stage 2 formula and I syringed some water into her. She's about a pound and a half, and maybe four to five weeks old? Toddling in an unsure way, but had ears up, eyes open, and teeth. I made her a vet appointment at my dog's vet tomorrow night. She seems a little skinny, maybe wormy, and has some sneeziness. So uh.... What do I do now? She's asleep on a puppy pad in a cardboard box and I guess is coming to work with me tomorrow to chill under my desk. We've been calling her Sriracha.

Two dogs, actually, since my roommate has one too. Both of which are 12 years old and outweigh her by 40 and 60 pounds respectively... Would a heating pad on low on one half of the box be too much for her? Right now she is refusing to sleep anywhere but inside my shirt. Also, Sriracha might be a temporary guest I don't know how I can commit to such a young, potentially yappy little beast. But... So cute...
