If you aren't sure if the puppies are eating properly form the mom, buy some milk replacement from petstore and start helping with the feeding. |
I took them yesterday and had their tales docked. They did not deworm them as I though they did this when they were older. The girl is 4.4 oz and the boy is/was 3.0 oz. They were concerned because the boy is so little. I did go get replacement milk but as suggested I am working on making sure he is nursing. I weighed him today and his is 3.3 oz. I know there could be a different in scales so I also weighed the girl she is 4.6 oz, so even if its off, it not by that much because the girl is close. So I think things are improving.
How much time should/can she spend away from her babies? She still doesn't seem to be drinking a lot of water.
