As to a response to the other little 1lb Yorkie ..
=) My boy puppy will not go to him new home till my Vet says he's ready .As far as price its negotiable =) .As far as shots , worming and vet visits go ..If you have a little pup xx-small .Not that I know what I'm talking about this is my first one ....Take him or her to the Vet ..if you have to question about shots, worming and so on .My vet does all that for me ..When you’re dealing with this size of a dog it’s not worth taking the chance ..No flea baths ..My Vet recommended using Dawn dish soap on Romeo ..I never had flea issues but in the beginning I did ..I actually used a flea comb every day on him ..I am sorry if people got upset about my post.. That was not my intention ..I just want a good home for him and though I would start early before waiting for his take home date ..I am glad I am doing it now |
I'm involved with rescue and had a little five week old pup (She's now 6 years old and doing wonderfully). She came to me with her whole body covered in fleas and bites. Dawn works wonderful. YES, you are right NO FLEA BATHS. What you want to do is fill the sink up with warm water, right up to his neck. let him soak a few minutes in it and then drain the sink. After, rinsing him well and getting as many of the loose fleas off. Next, lather him up with Dawn and put him in a warm towel for about five / ten minutes then rinse him well and dry him. When all is done go through him with a flea comb and a pair of tweezers and pull off any remaining. If the flea problem is bad you'll have to probably repeat it again the next day. Dawn works very well and it's very safe for the babies. Elaine
