Missy was 7 weeks and 3 days old when I got her. She only weighed 1 lb. She did great behaviour-wise. She has really been the most perfectly behaved little dog (now 9 months). What we did struggle with for her first month home was hypoglycemia. Her blood sugar levels often crashed in those first few weeks, and it was scarey. I always had a tube of Nutrical on hand and kept food available to her 24/7. I had to give Missy Nutrical 2-3 times per day for the first while that she was home. As she matured, I was gradually able to wean her off of it.
Good Luck! And Congrats on your new furbaby! |
