hello from Istanbul everyone
3 days ago we picked up our little puppy DOLCE (4 months old)
Since then I have looked at sooOOOoooo many sites ...and honestly I'm not sure what to do and not to do.
Reading through peoples comments and advice here gave me a good feeling. And I thought that this is where I should come and get the advice I need.
I'm glad to hear that Zoe is ok now
As I mentioned DOLCE is 4 months and has been with us for 3 days.
We continued the same feed and he was eating in the pet shop from where we purchased him 'PURİNA PRO PLAN for puppies (salmon)' (about 1 1/2 table spoons).He ate his 3 meals on his first day with a couple of small treats in between. However on the second day he would not touch his food....but he would accept his treats !!!???? I decided to modify his feed with another flavor..this time lamb PRO-PLAN and added a little chicken to it with a tiny bit of parmesan cheese!!!!! NOTHİNG
Then I tried a new batch this time...1/2 lamb PRO-PLAN and 1/2 canned puppy food......and.....he ate about a small tea spoon amount of it....a llittle more from my finger. I also stopped the treats cause I thought that maybe he was getting too used to it and I was over doing it with the treats.
I also give him DUO-JUNİOR multi-vitamin once a day.
I would really like to know how much should he be given for each feed...am I giving him too much and expected to much from him?
The next question :S he was born on the 10th Jan according to his vac certificate he was given Eurican DHPPP on the 1st of March and then
Eurican DHPPP-L and DHPPI - L on the 20th of march.So between the 20th and now he has not had any futher shots......when should we get his next shot?
The VETS here are telling me different things and I don't feel confident with any of the info......
I have a maltese back home in Australia and I never came across this with her (I miss her sooOOOoooOOOo much ) in the 9 years I had her with me.....and Mum has never had any challenges with her.
I'm sorta worried that even with the research I did before adopting Dolce that I may not be doing the right things :S
We play alot...and he runs around alot......and then I read not to do this cause of hypoglycemia and sugar levels.....
Or should I relax a bit? Cause I'M really not enjoying this experience.......we are sooOOOooo glad to have him in our home.
OK that's it ...sorry if it was a bit long :P
thanks
