[Lady of Yorkies]

2 of Autumn's babies are not thriving. They seemed to be doing ok but after I docked their tails yesterday they don't seem to be doing so well. Especially the little girl hubby calls Rosebud. The first boy was about 4 oz when he was born and Rosebud about 3 oz. Today they are a week old and the boy weighed about 3 oz and the girl about 2 oz. I know it is normal for a woman's baby to lose weight and then gain it back but is this normal for puppies? And is it normal to lose about an oz? I went out today and bought some supplemental milk and a bottle. The girl takes to it ok but the boy fights it. I tried letting the girl nurse on Lady but Lady won't be still, she wants to keep looking the baby over. I can't change the babies around, Lady's babies are so big that they'd crowd out whoever I put them with. Lady has lots of milk and Autumn seems to have enough. The other 2 of Autumn's puppies are doing great. They are over 6 oz and started out at a little over 4oz and about 41/2 oz. Is there anything else I can do for these 2 babies that I'm not already doing? Sylvia
