thought this might be a good topic so decided to go for it.im not looking for advice,just wondering what other peoples ways/views are of how to rear a litter of pups properly

I suppose it must vary between different breeds, peoples circumstances /facilities etc and we all have our own way of doing things ;)

I suppose it actually starts with the bitch and dog - if they're not strong, sound and healthy, both mentally and physically, you won't get a good litter no matter what you do when the pups are actually born.

yes i know this. i was just wondering how people who view/take part on here rear their litters

I think a lot of that is being covered on this thread: http://www.champdogsforum.co.uk/board/topic/101182.html

Agree ;-) Can't see the point in two threads covering similar points so will close this one.
