I am so glad to hear you stepped in to help this poor pup!

(Bad breeder!

) My little Cricket's mother had milk fever and her litter had to be hand fed. Cricket's breeder did keep the pups and handfeed them. Cricket always seemed to think she was a human baby, and I always wondered if it was because she was handfed. You will have to let me know if you notice this w your little one! Very happy to hear the little one is perking up! Wish you the best!
