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!  |
New recommendations has shots starting at 8 weeks, then 12 and 16 weeks. When given any earlier than that the immunities they received from their mother's milk will block any vaccinations that are given. Over time the immunities recived from the Dam diminish which is why vaccinations are required.
You can do a search on here, there are several threads on it. They also have a sticky posted in the health and diet section with an overview of vaccines, when to give, what to give, etc.
Hope this helps.
