It's amazing the difference a couple days makes in puppies! Cassie's litter will double their weight this week--most of the puppies hit a pound today--started at 10 ounces. Cassie must be feeding them cream. I know she's eating like a princess--roasted chicken, ice cream, sweet potatoes, cottage cheese, vanilla pudding, egg nog--whatever takes her fancy. Tonight the dogs liked the smell of my Costco chicken nuggets--so guess what Cassie and Millie had for dinner! The name of the game is keep mama dogs eating!
Here are pics of the litters. The little chocolate girl in the middle of Millie's group is so fragile--praying hard for her and supplementing her by tube feeding puppy formula. She's much stronger tonight and is nursing well.
Cassie's litter had dew claws removed today. They came back home, ate a big meal and are totally wiped out--those are some relaxed puppies!
More tomorrow!
Cassie's puppies--4 days old |
Millie and crew--almost one day old |
