[carmen in nj]

I start weaning at 4 to 5 weeks, mama usually tips me off, she gets slow with keeping the puppy area clean and only nurses periodically, and the babies still cry, so that signals to me time to start the Goat's milk soft food and a bit of whelping pudding gruel. by the time they are 8 weeks, mama starts wearing an onesie and usually she does not want to feed them anymore, but is very important that she goes in their pen often, she teaches them puppy manners and how to behave and play, that goes on until they are ready to leave at 12 weeks...
hugs,
