The dam got sick about a week after delivery and the vet said she could not nurse the puppies any more and should be kept away from the puppies. So the three puppies have been bottle fed puppy formula the entire time. The owner wanted me to have him because one went to her son and the other to her niece.... It has been a very costly and tiring time for this lady and since the puppies aren't with the dam she wanted me to start caring for the puppy. The other two puppies are huge compared to this one. This was her first litter of puppies and they were only going to family until the vet bill was huge so she new I would care for him and do what ever I can for him. The lasy who bread him has three yorkies, 2 girls and one boy, one with champion blood lines.
