I'm not weaning mine. I wish Allie would feed them more...
But they now have teeth and she but all refuses , I even try to hold her down and she growls at them. So I started them on mush Monday.
Because I just know they're not getting what they need.
But I think the longer mama feeds them the better.
Edited to add Allies puppies were 5 weeks old Sunday
