| scales? I am wanting to know if there is a certain type of scale that I would need to be able to way my pup? I mean I have used a digital one before on my son when he was 18 lbs and it wouldn't read but once he got to 25 lbs it would read.

| i have the same type of digital scale at home. it might not be 100% accurate, but it seems to be when i compare to the vets scale. i get get on the scale first by myself and take the number. then i gather my pup in my arms and get the second number. just subtract and you have the weight of your doggy! |

| My daughter picked up a digital baby scale at the Goodwill store. It works perfectly for all our pups. It will change from k/g to pounds so you can tell even down to small amounts. I like it because I can tell quickly if they are gaining or losing.
