Make sure to keep a hawk eye on Matilda for hypoglycemia, 9 weeks is really young. Make sure her gums are nice and pink, if they turn white that is an emergency room visit for hypoglycemia (these little pups can fade fast that young). A little bit of Karo Syrup is a stop-gap. Another must is Nutrical, if your pup isn't interested in the food you know she needs before running around you can use a little bit to stimulate her appetite, and then give normal food soon after. I know when Cookie was 14-15 weeks sometimes she'd start running around in the morning before eating anything. I gave her Nutrical a couple of times and then she went and pigged out on her dry food soon after.
