But, your right this puppy had his vaccinations way to young and the puppy shouldn't be around other dogs or taken out in public.

Speak to your vet about flea medication. I found a couple of fleas on one of pups when they were about 7 weeks of age. The vet said it was fine to administer 1/2 a tube of Frontline. But, to monitor for any adverse reaction. I only left it on 24 hours and then bathed them. Another thing to bathe him in (it kills fleas instandly) is Original Dawn Dish Soap.
Actually the shots were done in the middle of his 6th week. I'm not sure what the 3-4 week thing means it just said that on the paper, but the date shot happened was only a couple days before i picked him up.

Is 6 1/2 weeks still to early?

Thanks for the other tips. I had my GF's yorki over last week and he had some flee's that really why i was concerned with that. His belly doesnt look like its that big. It just looks like he eats a little more than usual. I think he's just fat lol. All her dogs were over weight some. Her adult yorki had a belly and so did all the puppys. She had a bugal that looked like a pot belly pig lol. she free feeds them, I bet the animals fight over food thinking that once its gone its gone.

What about fruit? Can i feed him any, if so what kind? And if its to early to feed it to him now, let me know.
