*Bringing home TWO poodle puppies* - Questions about raising more than one puppy
Hello all
My friend plans to bring home two adorable poodle puppies (Milan and Peyton) on September 1st. (Thanks to everyone who helped with names in my previous post
). We are in the process of getting everything prepared for their arrival...but in the process we ran into a couple of questions. I would love your opinions.
1. Should the puppies eat and drink from the same bowls?
- My concern is that she will not know how much each one is eating. I think that is especially important to monitor their food intake considering that these little ones will only be six weeks when she picks them up.
2. Should the puppies share a crate?
-I would think that it would be stressful to separate the little girls from each other initially. However, on the other hand, I have heard that it is possible for puppies to be more bonded to their littermate than their owner if they are not separated.
3. Should they be trained individually or together?
Any opinions you could offer would be greatly appreciated (even if they are not directly related to these questions).
Thank you!
