As others have said, he is really young to be removed from his mom. So you and wife are now replacing his mom and liter mates and yes, he is lonely and wanting to be near you. They are quite needy at this age, and you will notice a big difference in a couple weeks.
Good that you are getting the vet checkup soon, and you shouldn't take him outside where other dogs have been until he has completed all his shots, which depending on when he started could be around 16 weeks. Without protection he could easily get parvo and other things. |
