have you got a heat lamp on them, plus lots of deep bedding so they are warm , are you drying the pup after they have had there food , all this will help

Errr ..... Hang about, Stan: You Bred these Dogs, yeah? So, to have a reason for doing so, they must be potential world beaters, right? I mean, any old Back Yard Breeder can knock out a litter, for a few quid. Because his Dog has nuts or his Bitch bleeds. Right?

 

So, as ye've bred these future Champions ..... What's the problem, mate? Nothing's too good for a litter of Balyregan Bob's, surely? So chill out. Warm them, like Chris says. Sleep curled round them. They're canine royalty ~ or ye wouldn't have bothered with bashing out another litter. Right?

 

OR; If that's all wrong? Drop the lot off at the Arsepca and have their little guts pumped full of pentobarbitone. Save yeself all that stress. And learn something.

 

It's all about " Responsibility ", mate.

 

 

Anyway, fact that ye still want money for these pups shows they must be worth something to ye? Good. They're 'valuable' then. So you'll be willing to keep the lot if no one wants to buy them off ye, in a month or so's time? Excellent! I applaud you! I know a man who kept most of an entire pair of litters, because he bred them with purpose and wouldn't even Sell to anyone he didn't think worthy. Always nice to find someone else of such standing

 

 

I Have got all this right. Yeah? :whistle:

i see alot of wisdom in your words ditch puppies whine for no reason it's part an parcel of the job. keep the worming and food up, and as much human contact as possible, grab any kids ya can find. culling some of the litter might have helped the bitch with rearing and made finding good hunting homes easier, but most planned litters have new homes waiting{in an ideal world}. least ya half way through mate

I've had a litter of 12 now at 7 weeks. I have left a radio on low in the shed with them because if they hear the wind picking up or other noises it sets them off to howl. The heat lamp is the best thing cos they loose their body heat quickly and I clean them up with a towel when they've been eating or running around in the mud that was once my garden ! Full up and warm is the key. 9 have left over the last 2 days, keeping 1 so 2 to go and then I'll get my life back. It's hard work but you've to keep it constant with feed times and contact. The neighbours kids have been a big help. Good luck and try to chill out and see the funny side

So theyre eating solids, (appropriate solids) have access to water and are under a lamp or are warm enough and theyre still whining?? Have you taken the bitch away from them completley? I find the only thing that can keep a pups, especialy realy young pups content is their mother, wether they feed from her or not. Shes all theyve known all their life so her recent lack of contact with em will be rather traumatic.

 

What breeding are the pups?

The puppies are well fed,well watered,warm and are whining less the last couple of days. The mother seems overwhelmed by her babies and prefers to be away from them. She had a bout of mastitis when they were 3 weeks old so I reckon that had a lot to do with it. She can get nasty with them which is why we've seperated her from them,although she does like to check on them from time to time,presumably to make sure we are looking after them for her! She is pure irish greyhound and the sire is collie whippet greyhound,pups will make about 26" and they are all gorgeous! 4 your interest

i have a litter of six pups at six weeks old i took there mother away from them at five weeks old but for a couple of times letting her back in with them to ween them of her slowly and in between having good beding and a radio, plenty of grub i had a quiet whining free result, good luck with yours.ps plenty of warm lambs milk.

Some bitches just do not tolerate their pups 24/7 when whelping i whelp in an area big enough for the bitch to spend time away from the puppies if she wishes, aslong as she nipping into the box to feed clean and tend to the pups they should do fine.
