Well I'm annoyed....

Brittle doesn't want to nuse so much anymore because of the puppy teeth... so she just stands at the end of the box and looks at them and gets them all rialed up and they jump out of the box to see her and fall and cry for a good 20 minutes. I'm about to strangle her.... they were all fine and asleep until one saw her and sounded the alarm! Then she just stands there and makes them more upset! I'm about to strap her down so they can eat!!!!! Poor things...

Sorry I had to rant.. this is the 4th time she's done it today and I've had it with her psyching the pups out!

Ya my female did that too, I locked her in a room till she had no choice.... She finally fed them, But tried to get out when i opened the door.....

She doesn't lie down anymore, she just stands, gives them 5 minutes then walks out... I'm about to sit on her I'm so upset.

ahh the joys of puppy's LOL Don;t worry I've been there! My girl Brandy would do the same thing, like she was trying to get them to get outta the box. Do you have them starting on food yet? You may wanna try that if they have their teeth. Good luck!

We just started with the baby formula/puppy food tonight. My mom blended it and made it like Penut butter for them. I wish I had a camera because it was so funny and messy. Roz jumped right in the middle of the food and just burried her face in it! ROTFL!

Hehe and then ya get the little paw prints all over the floor....hehe.... I miss that...

Yuppers Now the real fun starts LOL

Pratt loved the food too. We're going to find something better to put the food in. We had them on some lids but they slid around a lot,s o we're going to look for something better like custard cups.

I used diner plate!!! Or maybe a cookie sheet......

ooh cookie sheet... there's something!!

Thanks!

LOl ya, you gotta improvise!!!! hahahaha

How old are the pups now? Sorry I can barely remember the day much less how old they are.... If the pups are around 3 to 4 weeks old, they shouldn't be on the mother that much anymore anyways. They look like pretty big puppies. Def. start the mush at this point, and make sure your giving that supplement me and christie told you about with them. I wouldn't hold her down to feed them or get upset, they are probably draining her dry. Taz and his brothers stayed with Zoe BUT they rarely nursed once we put them on the real food. It makes a HUGE difference.

ya that is true, I forgot that they would be older now!!!! I think that they are like 3-4 weeks now...

I've had to start replacement milk at two weeks so they will be fine on replacer milk.
