a big question i need answerd ASP please

[VetNutJim]

WE just got TWO baby pups to their forever homes.
Little Baby Melanie is 1 lb. 7 oz. (23 Ounces) and she is tiny like Coby.
Baby Amanda is larger @ 2 Lb. 12 Oz. (44 Ounces).

I think my Baby Amanda is going to be a BIG girl.

They are both nine weeks old and just precious little angels.

One thing I've noticed when picking them up and holding them (I do that a LOT, LOL) is the more relaxed they are the softer they feel.
When they want to keep playing and don't relax completely when I pick either of them up, I can feel their little bodies much more than when they are totally relaxed.

They have Daddy wrapped around their little paws. I just LOVE these little babies. They are truly little precious angels from heaven.

I coax Baby Melanie to eat more. She likes 'service' so I take some of their food and let here eat it off my fingers or hands. I can get ther to eat a little more that way.
They are getting boiled chicken with rice and chicken broth along with some puppy chow.

I'll bet your little Coby will be just fine but I'm like you, I worry and fret over my babies too.

[Mom to Hot Rod]

You've gotten a lot of good advice already. Hot Rod was 1.57 when we got him at 15/16 weeks! He felt like a bag of bones and I was so afraid that I would hurt him. Hubby had to give him is first bath as I was too afraid too. He got his first bath in the bathroom hand sink and even then hubby had to hold him so he wouldn't drown. It took forever to hit that 2 lb mark.

Now he's a very solid 4 1/2 lbs. Very study and muscular. So there is hope. Hang in there.
