Thanks for your comments, the puppy is still growing albeit very slowly. We in the family have been making a very concious effort to ensure that he is getting some of the best teats before the larger ones get on and it is paying off. I did also supplement him for a while with lactol in drops, but have stopped this now.
I am now getting worried about all of them when I weighed them yesterday they had lost a few grams each. I am not sure the mother is drinking enough how can I make her drink, she hadly ever touches the water, any suggestions.
Perhaps I am worrying too much do puppies sometime lose weight. They are a 10 days now. The look healty shiny coats etc. |
