Tails and dewclaws should be docked around 3 days of age so they can't feel the pain. As far as shots they won't be due until about 6-8 weeks of again..and every 2-4 weeks after that. Mama should be taking care of them for the most part and i normally just free feed my mommas because of the puppies nursing i don't want to deprive her of anything...hope that helps.
BTW welcome to YT...you may get some nasty opinion for what has happen but to me since it has happen there is much we can do but help you along the way.
I just hope that this is a lesson learn and you will be doing tons and tons of reading along the way...good luck with your new litter and please post pictures because we love pictures...heheh |
