Puppy Weights My babies pups are 12 days old and the female weighs 141/8 oz.. and the male weighs 147/8 oz. Is that too much for 12 day old pups. They each weighed 5 oz. at birth. Just curious. |
No, I don't think so. I just got through weighing our crew and at 9 days old they are all between 8.2 and 11.2. The birth weights were between 4 oz and 5 oz. |
No I don't thik it's too much since they started at 5 ounces. There isn't much you can do about their size, the genes will determine how big they will get. My guess is they will be around 7 pounds full grown. How big are the parents? |
I had followed a chart someone had sent me. Quote:
The pups that didn't gain this or half of an oz daily I supplemented. My bitch had 7 puppies. I wish I knew were I saved that chart I would send it to you. |
I thought my puppy was the fattest here! He is the only survivor of his litter so he is nursing all the time! he's 14 days old and weighs in at 14.9 oz. he is gaining close to an ounce a day . An ounce is the most he's gained per day. But I seen another puppy here that was only like 7 days old and already weighed 14 oz.My puppy's parents are 5-6 lbs full grown. The puppy weighed 3.7 oz at birth and really didnt start to gain anything until the 3rd day when her milk came in... Genie,Cookie,Lola,Angel & Lucky |
Well it sounds like they are pretty average. The mom is 41/2 lbs. and dad is 7 lbs. I know he was bigger than mom but all is O.K. |
pups It is impossble for an unweaned Yorkie pup to weight too much..some are so fat they can not roll over or stand very well..but once weaned, they slim down in a matter of 2 to 3 days...let them nurse all they want... |
