Nobody knows what's going on exactly, isn't that more to the point?! Another bunch of charlatans masquerading under the guise of 'charity', all too common nowadays. Feel sorry for folk that have donated and been fooled, very little seems to actually help any of the poor animals they are donating...
Off topic but I know loads of farm collies that live in houses. In that they come into a utility room or the kitchen to sleep by the aga in the evenings
Regardless, it's all a bit late, they are here, they are 6 weeks, you have done it in whatever way you have done it, they have pet homes etc etc, nothing will change any of that now, unless you change your mind and sell them all to the local terriermen! If you want puppy guide templates for your...
I've also never heard of anyone adlib feeding a litter, that's possibley shocked me the most bizarrely. So I do wonder where your expert advice or research on weaning etc came from!
With all due respect. I don't know anyone who has managed to pull a tail off a puppy during whelping! However I commend that you were at least in attendance with a vet on the phone. As i stated before had you let nature take it's course you likely would have had a disaster on your hands. It...
I've also bred litters outside, and don't have an issue with dogs being reared outside....if they are working dogs for working homes. I agree with dgs other comments, you have winged it all a bit patterdale. You can't say you havnt. At 6 weeks is it not a little late to be saying, 'oh I didn't...
Also your comment about the coyotes is even more irrelevant as I just took the time to read the thread in which they were being born...had they had no human intervention....experienced or otherwise....patterdale probably would have lost thé bitch and thé entire litter. So yes, the bitch is a...
No I geniunely don't think it was out of order. Though as above at 6 weeks it's less concerning than 3, not sure where I got that from so probably as irrelevant as your coyote post.
Ets unlikely to go unnoticed made no sense I meant likely to go unnoticed!
It's all a little irrelevant, they are wild friggin coyotes not domestic dogs.
Not sure how that remark was that out of order. Merely an observation that it would unlikely go unnoticed until morning. I would think they are particularly vulnerable right now, at 3 weeks old and no bitch even...
Yes but they will loose a few to nature before they hit maturity and moreover they won't be off to live in a house when they hit 8 weeks
As for the rest of this thread *whistles nonchalantly and walks away whilst pretending not to have seen*
