Other than that, he said to just stay with her as often as possible, and of course watch for hypoglycemia. He said this should not be a problem if we are feeding her very frequently. Puppies don't always come from ideal situations. I am sure my Gracie and your baby will be just fine with lots of love and care, research, and a good vet. I also plan to keep her home and not allow visitors until she's older. I don't want her catching anything at all! Please let us know how it goes, and congrats on your new baby
Are you getting the puppy from a breeder? Why if the person giving you the pup before the legal age to give puppies
