Just a few things you need to take into consideration...
A puppy should not have any shots before 8 weeks old. If you give him shots tomorrow it will be absolutely pointless and useless.
How much/how often is he nursing and eating food? Many pups are still on milk until 8 weeks old. He isn't quite ready for puppy food yet, at least not whole puppy food. Keep grinding it up and encouraging him to eat.
Be careful with the nutrical. Only give it if you think he absolutely needs it really shouldn't be on any every day basis. Giving nutrical everyday can actually cause a blood sugar attack.
As for Bevo, don't give up on his so easily. As Mac matures they will develop a closer bond. Most adults can't handle all that hyperness that puppies have but once they start calming down they will become close to them. I've gone through this many many times, it just takes time and patience. |
Ok...here I go again being the dumb one...I thought he was supposed to have his shots at 6 weeks. My vet told me to bring him in now...in the past, we have raised Pugs and always given shots at 6 weeks...plz do let me know as I wont waste a trip an hour away tomorrow!!
He is trying to nurse, but his poor mommy doesnt have much milk...he acts really hungry as the reason why we are trying different things. We arent giving nutrical often, just if we feel he is acting "droopy". But we do have it on hand just in case.
I really hope you are right as far as Bevo goes. Its not just Mac, He wont have anything to do with any dogs. For exampe...he LOVEs to play fetch...but if Macs Mom is around and I throw a toy, he wont even attempt to go after it b/c she does...If she or Mac is on my lap, he will go to a completely different couch to lay down, and he is ALWAYS on my lap...I just dont know!
