I've learned from Hershie's litter that the mama does need time to herself so that she can unwind and get the love she needs from her mama, meaning you. When it comes time to weam the puppies, if you get a onesy for newborn babies to put on the mama, you'll have to cut out a hole for the tail, it will allow her to continue to be around her babies and play with them without worrying about the puppies trying to sneak some milk from the mama. If you need any advice, I'm hear for you. Take care of the lil ones and Congradulation, grandma! |
Thank you for your advise.
I've been watching Cheeky and indeed she looked at me as if she wanted to be picked up by me. I took her out of whelping box and gave her mini shower, rubbed her belly and played with her here and there through out the day and she enjoyed it a lot, thank you!
I just worry about the little one(Weiny). I've been making sure he gets to eat before others, becase others are much bigger than him and they kinda bully him(sleeping on top of him, pushing him while he's eating, etc...)
I do have a question about dewclaw and tail docking... they are 3~4oz ans smallest one is only 2oz and its 3rd day today, when can I do dewcalw and tail docking? I was thinking about 5th day...
