My 1 year old lizard got out of her cage three days ago. He was attack by a small dog why I was at work. I checked on her and there is no visble wounds except for a bite on her tail. She barely moved since the incident and now she wont drink. I put a small plate of some cut up shrimp and eggs and she hasn't touched. I suspect she may have broke something. Al the vets I called are not in till Wednesday and I am unsure of what I should do to keep her alive until then. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciative. Her skin is dry and I can pinch it and it remains folded. An indication of dehydration. I been giving her small amounts of water but I do not want to stress her. Also she usually very skiddish when I have to open her cage but now she lays there and buffs at me. Please assist until I can see a vet.


PS emergency vets will not see my lizard but if you know of someone in lakeland FL I would be. Happy to see then
