All the pups are doing well and all gaining weight. We keep a daily log of all weights for all pups so we can see how they develop and if any require a top up. Good news is those that had minimal or no weight gain have shown a much improved increase today. It also shows who are thre greedy ones! We know who you are! We also had to remark them all as the original marks were disappearing. Seeing some changes already in their appearance, spots showing up on some more than others.
I modified the door on the whelping box today so Daisy can come and go as she pleases. We have found that during the latter part of yesterday see wanted some time out. Today she is now responding to us and taking treats as before she was 100% focused on the pups nothing else came onto her radar! She has, at times, allowed Oreo into the whelping box. He is being fantastic in stimulating and cleaning each pup giving Daisy a break or hand. When she is feeding he is not allowed in the pen, Daisy tells him! When this happens Oreo is none too pleased as he whines and wants to stay in the pen and help out. I find this hard to believe as he has been so good.
The interest in the pups has been surprising, a waiting list is on the go, just wish we could offer a girl to all those interested.
