My dogs have been a mix. Whatever fits them. I do tend to like "people" names better for dogs. I actaully think Bailey and Harely are DOG names and not people names. Lily is another very popular DOG name that i think is a little funny on people. I had a friend who use to be against "human" names for dogs and would go on rants about it. lol now she has 4 dogs with "human" names!

nope! lol Siberian huskies should make it into the top ten!

So vera has just gotten her puppies back. They are 5 weeks now and they have been apart since 2 weeks due to vera trying to die. She had been around them a little bit still and she would play with them ect. But now she will eat whatever she can get a hold of and throw her food up when shes around the puppies. I fed her an hr or more before letting her play with the puppies and she still threw up food. Is this normal? The puppies are not starving. They always have hard kibble to snack on and they get some softend food every 4-6hrs.

That sounds about right. My nicest puppy is a brat and has never wanted to be held, or held for long. I like to watch them move. If they move right they are put together right. They can look great and not move great at all.

Interesting articel poddlefan. I will have to keep that in mind for my next litter. All of my puppies are very strong and healthy so I dont think picking the stronger link will factor in much. I know who is the smartest but having the smart siberian isnt always the wisest choice! lol dancinbcs- I get what you are saying. My breed, siberians, is VERY political (in my area, anyways. Theres handfuls of big handlers and big kennels.) and i have seen top winning dogs in the ring and can clearly see their faults but they are the faults that make a dog flashy and some judges just dont get it. Or they just go for the person on the other end of the lead. Theres also two very different styles out right now and its a hit or miss on the judge you get. I wouldnt pick the pet of the litter just because it has the style I like. But I have two bitches right now that structure wise are very much a like. One has more neck therefor having nicer shoulders. Shes a really nice puppy as of right now. The other puppy isnt crap by any means shes just not AS nice but is very typy. Both look nice gaiting from the side. I guess I will know more once I can see their rear moments. If they end up with their sires rear their out. I'd keep them both if it where possible.

How do you go about picking your puppy? Of course there is structure, temp and style to look at. But what comes first for you? lets say your nicest puppy structure wise isnt the style you like and theres a puppy with the style you like and nice structure but not as nice as your other puppy? Temp means a lot to me so a sucky temp will get a puppy veto from my list and could even mean a show puppy, no matter how nice, getting fixed. But what does it for you? Would you take second, or even third pick, from your litter for style sakes or would you keep the nicest puppy even tho its not they style you like?

They are beautiful,shame they have to grow up! I love them in their wraps. Well,my vet said the cabbage leaves are the best idea which has been advised to you yesterday.Now,there is an injection to dry up the milk,she said she doesn't like using it and didn't say what it was.....so I haven't been of much help to you today. She was busy so I didn't pester her re the name....sure all vets would know what it is. Lucky for you yours are a larger breed,if they were Chis at 2 weeks I would have had to bottle feed them......we all know how tiring that is around the clock! Thanks for the info :D i got really lucky. They have been really heathly and strong puppies from the start. I did try to bottle feed them for 2 days and it was awful. They fought me the whole time and wanted to eat every hour but hated the bottle so they would hardly eat. They started off with baby oatmeal, milk and jar baby food. Took right to it and ate every 4 hrs.

Thanks lol everyone loves silver. Shes soooooo smart. The first one to figure out the bottle, puppy mush and how to drink water. She figures out EVERYTHING first.

I dont know how much I can stop feeding her. She gets a small meal every 1-2 hours to help with the red blood cell count. Shes not swollen or anythingbut shes not dried up either. Sry to hear about the boy but congrats on your girls ;) I have 1 boy and 3 girls They will be 4 weeks on wed. 3 week pics Silver Tiffany Audrey And my Oscar man

I gave him a teddy and wrapted up the hot water bottle. i wrap him up after they eat and watch everyone close so he can play with them. He doesnt start to really scream till night when he wakes up and has no one to play with.

So ice packs instead of the leaves? She has to be dried up and wrapted before she can have them back. She did let me massage a TON of goo out. It was pretty nasty. Shes a really good girl. The garlic may be out of her system but none of its effects are. Her red blood cell count is still at 19. The masitis is pretty much gone. She still has a heart murmor and they dont know if it is from the garlic or if she got a valve infection. Shes on a ton of meds. They said she needed all of her enerngy build up her count rather then making milk. Puppies are good. They got weaned at 2 weeks. The girls keep sucking the boys boy part so they are seperated now and he NOT happy that!

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I tried to wrapt him....the girls would just chew at it and pull it off! Naughty! I would pull them away and they would keep at it. So now he is apart from them and NOT happy about. He screamed almost all night and then the girls where looking for him and crying back

Yea I think I can do lengthwise...will just have to figure out how to make it work. Oakway- do you have a pic or instructions on how to make the bandages?

I have a heat lamp on one side that covers most of it and a pile of blankies (away from the potty area) that has a heating pad.
