It is definetly all worth it when I get to see her play with her big brother (10 lb. schnoodle). |
I have a update on the little one! We went and picked her up last night and I since i went with her i got to ask questions
(she was with the women who actually knew what she was doing this time) She was born November 5th so when she was sold to my daughters boyfriend she just turned 7 weeks old and she wasn't a pound at the time yet. She has been keeping her under a heat light and feeding her goats milk and puppy weaning food but even with the milk mixed in with the food to make it soft she wouldn't eat it so she was having to force feed her 4 times a day. Well when we got home with her we put her in her cage with the light on top and of course she whined so we let her out and she went nuts running around playing with her almost 11 week old uncle Max it was so cute. Then it came time to feed max so i carried his little bowl to him (because he wouldn't leave the room to go eat haha) and he started chowing down and when Bella seen him eating she ran over sniffed the food and started chowing away to i looked at my daughter and told her maybe that was all it took was seeing another dog enjoying it lol. But anyways now all the little thing wants to so is eat oh and play she is doing good as of last night when we went to bed i haven't seen her yet this morning because my daughter has her in her room but we are keeping her in the cage (i hate the way that sounds) with a heat light at night to keep her warm and if we don't think she is getting enough to drink we play the squirt the water in the syringe at her and she loves it she just laps it up as it comes out. Like i said so far things are great oh and also we got the Nutri-Cal stuff like you all advised lets just hope we won't need to use it
I almost forgot she weighs 1.2 lbs now and they said they estimate her to be at least 5lbs fully grown if not a little more.
