Puppies can start going on short walks outside once they have completed their vaccinations, which is usually around 12-16 weeks of age. It's important to consult with a veterinarian to determine the right time to start taking your puppy outside.

Dalmatians do not typically eat their own puppies. If a mother dog does display this behavior, it could be due to stress, a lack of maternal instinct, or certain health issues. It is important to provide a safe and stress-free environment for the mother and her puppies, and seek veterinary advice if any concerning behaviors are observed.

Puppies, like humans, can experience bad dreams. During sleep, puppies may exhibit twitching, whimpering, or barking, which could indicate they are having a negative dream. It is a normal part of the sleep cycle and nothing to be overly concerned about.

Puppy chow is called that because the snack closely resembles dog food, commonly known as chow, and it is enjoyed by many like how puppies enjoy their food eagerly. The name is meant to be playful and to reflect the snack's appearance and appeal.

Signs that a dog is about to go into labor include nesting behavior, loss of appetite, restlessness, panting, and a drop in body temperature. Keep an eye on these signs and contact your vet if you have concerns.

the males pepe swells up to get stuck into the females vajaj to make sure sperm get in to breed or to have babies
Its normal...looks odd but its the way the male insures that he is releasing all the sperm and not letting any go to waste. The male just gets swollen and she tightens, so it will soon release, never try to pull them apart!!!!!!!

Puppies can have gas due to various factors such as swallowing air while eating too quickly, a sudden change in diet, or consuming certain foods that are difficult to digest. It is important to monitor your puppy's diet, feed them a balanced diet, and consult with a veterinarian if you are concerned about their excessive gas.

Puppies generally require food every 3-4 hours when they are very young (up to 8 weeks old). As they grow older, they will transition to a regular feeding schedule of about 3-4 meals per day until they are around 6 months old. It's important to provide a balanced puppy food to support their growth and development.

Puppies are typically spayed or neutered between 8 to 16 weeks of age, although recommendations may vary depending on the breed and overall health of the puppy. It is essential to consult with a veterinarian to determine the best timing for the procedure based on individual circumstances.

Yes, it is possible for a single litter to consist of offspring from multiple male dogs.

Puppies usually begin to open their eyes when they are around 10 to 14 days old. Initially, their eyes may be somewhat cloudy or appear blue, but their vision will continue to develop in the following weeks.

Dogs typically stop having puppies around 8-10 years old. As they age, their fertility decreases and pregnancy and childbirth become riskier for both the mother and the puppies. It is recommended to spay/neuter dogs to prevent unwanted litters and potential health issues.

No, it is not recommended to give water to newborn puppies as their primary source of nutrition should be their mother's milk. Feeding water to newborn puppies could potentially cause water intoxication and impact their development. It's important to ensure that the mother dog is providing adequate care and nutrition to the puppies.

Puppies generally receive their first vaccines, and necessary boosters at 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 16 weeks of age. They should return to the Vet at 1 year for their first "adult" shots, and typically every year for an exam. Check with your Vet for his/her specific protocol as the necessary vaccines can vary by region.

Yes, because all canines live in packs, where they have a leader, the alpha male. The puppy follows you because it recognises you as the leader of the pack, regardles your sex. Also, when they grow, they are more hungry than not, so it expects food from you (as in the pack). But, do not feed him all the time. Remember: small pups two meals, grown dogs one meal a day.

It is generally recommended to limit visitors around newborn puppies to prevent potential stress or exposure to illness. Newborn puppies are fragile and vulnerable, so it's best to wait until they are a bit older and stronger before allowing visitors.

Yes, puppies can be allergic to their mother's milk. This can be due to a variety of factors such as the mother's diet, medications she may be taking, or health conditions she may have.

Puppies typically start to calm down around 6-12 months of age, but it can vary depending on the individual dog and breed. Regular exercise, training, and socialization can help puppies learn to manage their energy and behavior as they mature.

try an adoption or rescue center. There is the SPCA, the local pound, or they have local rescue centers for certain breeds that you can find online. There is often an adoption fee or $75-$150, BUT keep in mind you are getting puppies that have had their shots and alters (neuture/spay) included in the price. Not only that, but these are organizations that are non profit and depend on those adoption fees to care for their animals. Either way, that is a lot lower than what you would spend at a vet getting your puppy fixed and vaccinated. PLEASE AVOID breeders, puppy mills, and pet stores that sell animals. There is so much abuse occurring in these situations and people are financially benefitting from it! DO NOT financially support these evil people. I have worked in the animal health field and I have witnesses this with my own eyes. Also, there are risks involved with purchasing pure breed animals. They are inbred and their is a higher risk of them having medical problems because of their gene pool. It's just like the royal families that used to develope rare genetic diseases because they were trying to keep the bloodline in the family.

A lot of people think that you can't find puppies at the pound or SPCA but that is untrue. You never know what you are going to find there, plus these are animals that desperately need your love, their lives depend on it. I cannot tell you how many times people came in the animal hospital I worked at with dogs that retail in the thousands (how sad that there are retail value for another beings life) that they found at the local pound/dog shelter. Good luck!

The puppies need their mother's milk. No one wants to feed a liitle puppy with a tiny baby bottle several times a day. People want puppies that can eat puppy food. They want puppies that can walk.

We have the company assurance that moist food won't hurt them. But, you need to know, if you only feed your dog soft food it can affect their teeth. Most breeders feed, their puppies & dogs, dry puppy or dog food.
