Hello Everyone,
I have been getting lots of info on this great site. Of course I have a million questions, lots answered, thanks. But what want to know is how much a puppy should sleep. My "Button" is 10 weeks old and I have only had her for 4 days. I am living in South Korea and don't trust the vets as much as I would back home.
When she first came home, for two days she was full of evergyy, jumping, eating lots, playing, but still slept quite a bit. Now ( 4 days later) she is barely eating and is sleeping all the time. About 21 hours a day. Last night she played and then ate some food, after having not eaten all day. Today no food or playing. I have been giving her nutrical and water, but I am a bit worried.
I realized after reading ont he site that I have fed her way too much the first two days. Didn't realize they ate so little, am used to my Lhasa from home.
Any advice would be geat, should I just give her more time to settle in?
Thanks for you help.
