Also, stock up on a tube of NutriCal...give it to your new pup 2 to 3 times a day. Make sure he/she is eating well, too. At this point, it doesn't really matter what they're eating, as long as they're eating. If the only thing it will eat at this point is McDonald's hamburgers, then feed it that. Then, as it gets older and more healthy, you can start feeing him/her the good dog food that they need. Don't get me wrong, if it will eat dog food when you bring it home, you need to feed it dog food. Also, you have to be especially careful handling her bc he/she will be so fragile! Don't let it jump off the couch or bed bc it will be liable to break a leg! Basically, just treat it like a little baby and have fun with her! Can't wait to see pics! | Ditto! Nutrical and feed what ever they will eat. Enjoy |
