If you already took him to the vet, then your vet would have told you what you needed to do and would have already answered these questions, before you brought your dog home! Call your vet back and ask him or her! Your vet knows what your dogs situation is, better than anyone here does and would be the best person to ask! How did your Chihuahua break it’s ribs?
