Nurse them until it seems like they don't wanna be nursed no more.
We wean our small breed puppies at 5 weeks, by 5 weeks of taking care of puppies the moms are sooooo ready to be done taking care of puppies! As long as they have some teeth 5 weeks is good, just make sure that they are eating, if they are "teacup" pups they nurse up to around 8 weeks.
The newborn puppies should be nursing from their mother, they get all the liquid they need from her the first two or three weeks.
Pyr puppies should take about two weeks for their eyes to begin opening and three for them to be fully opened.
For the most part, no - newborn puppies mostly sleep and and nurse for the first two weeks.
Puppies of any breed should be started on the weaning process at between three and four weeks of age.
if im not mistaken it takes a female dog about 9 weeks to have puppies so about three months give or takeit takes about 8 to 9 weeks for a yorkie to have its puppies...i know this because i have a female yorkie who just had its own puppies!
About two to three weeks after they are born.
Puppies should be allowed to nurse with their mothers atleast until they are 6-8 weeks old. After 8 weeks they would be healthy enough to find themselves a new home.
Puppies should not be taken from their mother before 6 weeks of age. Most breeders, however, wait a little longer and do not re-home their puppies until 8 weeks for large breeds and 10-12 weeks for small breeds.
after three weeks of being pregnant then you can start to feel the puppies kick. but before then she will start to get bigger and bigger. then finaly after 9 weeks or so out comes the pups!
A veterinarian should be consulted when the mother of puppies does not care for them. They normally receive colostrum in the mother's milk that help their immune systems. Puppies sleep quite a bit, and nurse about every three hours. If they are healthy after three weeks, they will usually survive to adulthood. For neonatal support of orphaned puppies, see the related links below.
6 weeks old puppies can have sour cream but it is not very healthy for them and should wait to feed them sour cream til they are older.
