I totally agree....But I had waited so long for this litter and I had to take a chance..... |
I know Joyce, I'm not saying anything negative about you, I think you taking him was probably the best thing that could have been done, I just didn't want you thinking it was something you did wrong..I was agreeing, that most likely, there was def. something wrong with him to begin with... |
Its not just her pup, its all 4 of them! |

Ohhhh nooo...I didn't take it badly...I was just agreeing with you....I think deep down, I knew that he was not going to make it....But I had to try..... Granted at the time, I thought it was my fault but later I was able to look back and see that I did everything possible... So no problem.... Sorry we took over your thread.... BTW Marshall was the only pup in this litter... |
well, usually you start weaning them between 3-4 weeks(or thats what I did with my shih tzu's pups), anyway, a lot of times then, the mother does not have a lot to do with them..she's probably tired of messing with them...they should be fine if they're eating now... |
OMG, 6 weeks! That is VERY young to be bringing a puppy home :( Both of my babies were 12 weeks old when they came home with us. |
i had my new puppy order.the breeder told me she ready now and she only 6 weeks.so i said no way.have to be ai least 8 weeks before i will have her.and she agree to wait another 2 more weeks.if i have my way.i would like her to be 12 weeks.:) |
Now, as far as my personal preference, I've had it both ways, the first one at 6 weeks, and the new one 11..I prefer getting them at 6 weeks, if they're eating well and are healthy...The one I got at 6 weeks was almost completely housebroken at 8 weeks, was already running to her pee pad then..The one I just got was doing fantastic on the pee pad for a few days, now she's back sliding..The one I got at 6 weeks was less of a chewer, than the one at 11 weeks...this is a very controversial thing..I just know I prefer them younger..guess it depends on a lot if you're home with them 24/7 also..and i was, so knew I would be able to make sure she was eating, drinking, etc.. |
My friend got his Yorkie at 7 weeks old. He did fine but he is a bigger Yorkie. |
Nathan was 3 days old when he arrived home . Keeping him alive was my biggest challenge . Today , he is a splendid little boy . |
Lexie was 10 weeks old when I brought her home. The breeder was willing to let her go earlier, but I wanted to take some time off work to bond with her, and that was the soonest I could arrange. |

3 days old:eek: , I would of been so scared. :thumbup: to you for being able to take care of such a young pup! |
Aubrey was 8 weeks, and the breeder said Dakota was 8 weeks but I think she was 6 or 7. |
Brandi was 6 1/2 weeks and about 12 oz when I got her.......her momma didn't really want to be bothered.......her brother stayed an extra week or week and a half......thank god she's ok and I didn't have any problems.......even when we took her back to see her momma weeks later....she wanted nothing to do with her...... |
