At around a few months old. Do not separate them from their moms when it is weeks old. It still needs it's mother.

∙ 13y agoAfter they are completely weaned. I start at around 3 weeks giving mushy puppy food mixed with Esbilac or canned milk, diluted one part water to one part canned milk. Do not use regular cow's milk as will cause diarrhea. Make sure the dry puppy food is soaked until it is very soft and make it very liquidity so they can lap it up at first. It is important for them to be around their Mother for at least 6 weeks. I usually have them off the mom as far as nursing by the age of 5 weeks but still let them interact together.

∙ 14y ago10- 12 weeks. The pups will be weaned before then but how silly to believe the mothers only purpose is nursing. Mom will teach them social skills with people and animals as well as confidence. Taking any creature away from the one nature intended to raise it too early tends to cause insecurity which can lead to temperament and behavior problems down the road. It is not realistic to think you can replace Mom without causing the pup the separation stress that makes them feel vulnerable and anxious. How they react to this vulnerability can vary from over attachment to defensive even if these behaviors take a while to manifest as the puppy grows. If you can't keep them this long it is irresponsible to breed.

If the puppies are with the mother then you should keep them with her until 8 weeks of age.
