You may also want to try a little bit of canned food or taking her food and adding some warm water to it to soften it a bit. Most people on here will tell you they shouldn't leave until 10-12 weeks of age, some let them go around 7-8 weeks, if the pups are bigger and eating well on their own. Good luck. the karo syrup should make her thirsty. Also make sure she has water and food available 24/7


the ONLY problem with water available 24/7 is you will be up with her MANY times during the night and she will never learn to hold it. If she is being crated (Which i suggest) at night do not leave water in her crate- she will wake you when she needs to pee and then you can check her gums and offer her more apple sauce, baby food or yogurt.
