I understand 12 weeks is best but my situation didnt permit me to do so. I adopted the mother from a friend of mine when she had already been irresponsibly bred and was close to giving birth so I accepted the responsibility of taking care of mom and the puppies for the first 8 weeks but I also work full time and it was getting very difficult to keep up with 3 puppies. What I need to know is at what age should the nursing stop and should I intervene or let the mother take care of it? |
