A trawl through should find some good advice to go with what has already been posted for you. I think one of the best should be put on as a sticky, so that prospective puppy buyers can be a bit more prepared for what they are taking on. Breeders who will grab the money and send someone off with a pup, without giving good advice make me cross. the breeder was my best mate its come out of 2 good dogs a big salxgrey and bullxgrey its just that ive never had a pup this young befor thats all cheers mate but its coming in the bed room with me in a dog cage for the 1st month or so then its gunna go out in a kennel so it shell hear me snoring Just read the last few posts. I think you will be ok it looks like your doing all the right things Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think 6 weeks is too early for a pup, 7 weeks is borderline and 8 weeks perfect. If people breed for money then the sooner the better, and the new owner ends up with all the problems. A new pup should be treated like a human baby, given love, warmth and comfort. If you think the constant crying is a problem for you think about what the poor pup is going through. Cut the guy slack, he asked a question that he probably knew the answer but wanted to start a topic and stroke all your egos...... Looks like he succeeded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kill um with crisps 7 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Of course it is going to be restless, you have just removed it from it's mum and littermates, the only things it knew, plenty of reassurance, somewhere warm and dry to sleep, good food and lots of tlc and it should settle, be prepared for a few restless nights, remember it is just a baby so treat it like one for now. Spot on C/G! I have to say every pup iv had has been a noisy little sod at night. There all the same. Some are like it for just 2 or 3 nights and others are like it for much longer! Be fair though, its existed for just 6 weeks and grown in that time from a tiny, helpless little blob to a pup that is walking about, eating solid foods, can see etc etc and during all that time it has known the safety, warmth and comfort of its mum and littermates touch, noises and smells. Then all of a sudden a strange giant turns up, talks loudly, smells unfamiliar, picks it up and takes it away from all it has ever known. No wonder it cryes at night! You can keep it in a cage at night for a few weeks till its settled or you can let it have the run of the house (or a small area of the house using a stairgate). If you have other dogs i would suggest this as the other dogs will keep it company. Of course you then have to put up with its toilet mishaps which wouldnt be a problem in a cage. A puppy pad is a good thing but a puppy needs to be trained to use them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have not criticized him at all if you re-read my post. Just noted that he had some good advice given already. I suggested a sticky on puppy welfare, because most of the similar posts seem to come from people who know Jack Shit about it. I am concerned about pups and their upbringing not ego's.

craigy 1 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 My brother has just went through the same problem as yourself told him to change the grub he was feeding to a better quality food and he has never looked back its worth a try the only other thing i would say is get the pup out your room as when you kennel it outside it might start again because its on its own hope all goes well mate.
