Well my 6 pups are 3 weeks old to-day and the smallest, the girl has just reached 1kg. Mum has been pretty good all through but has just reached that stage where a bit more encouragement is needed so I stay with her while feeding.
Sounds a daft question because I am not an inexperienced breeder, but the last couple of litters have been very large and we have had to intervene helping Mum etc, ( so this has been a breeze really ) but how long through the night do you let them go, I am pretty exhausted which is fine but would be glad of a long night's sleep. I have a medium /large breed ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!
