| Nursing question I am such a nervous Nellie with this litter of pups. I've had pups before and the vet said Thursday that the puppies are very healthy. Here is my question, the puppies are 11 days old and it seems that Gidget is less interested in them lately as far as nusring them. She is locked with them all night in one room but during the day she seems to only nurse them for a few minutes at a time. Is that normal? |

| This is a hard question to answer without actually being there. I would say weigh the pups daily and if they are gaining weight then there is no problem. |

| How are the puppies and Mom doing? Here's a link that gives information from birth to 3 weeks and after reading it, at the bottom, you will find other links for 4 weeks, 5 weeks, etc. http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/whelpingphotos3.htm |
