The breeder has decided that she should keep her until she is 8 wks and a few days.. just wants to be sure that she is eating on her own.. she has been slow at doing so.. Guess I will have to wait until the 21st to get her .
It is so frustrating waiting for her.. I'm just like a little kid that can't wait for christmas to get here. I'm so excited for her.
| Jake is a little over a year and is 4 lbs., 4 oz. He was the only pup in the litter and weighed 3.5 oz. at birth. When I got him at almost 10 weeks, he was 1 lb., 10 oz. I remember that he was gaining quickly when he was nursing. Once he stopped nursing, he started to slow way down. He is from different parents (I'm going through the same breeder) so that makes a huge difference. Jackson's mom is bigger than Jake's mom. Size is just something that can't be predicted, but they do gain weight at a faster rate while they are nursing. |
