Dogs and Puppies

Dog Trainer/K9 Lover asked:


I am just wondering about how many German Shepherd puppies will be born if this is the first litter? I know it will cost a lot of money to raise a litter. Her mother had 5 German Shepherd puppies. All Alive & Healthy. Anyways, some people are saying that the first litter will be small like about 3-6. I am not too sure about this. Any Help will be good. Thanks in advance.

I am very interested in helping to raise / train dogs or puppies to become service dogs for people with disabilities. I am looking for an organization in the Oklahoma City area that does this. What I am interested in doing is helping to get the puppy used to everything, such as taking it to the store, out to eat, the airport, etc. I have seen puppies wearing those vests before, but not lately and not since I moved to Oklahoma. Does anyone know of an organization like this or where I might be able to find more information on it? Thank you!

Eric S. asked:


I am getting a puppy on Monday and he is 6 weeks old. The people selling him said that all of their puppies have gotten their first round of shots. How many more “rounds” do they need? And how much will it cost me?
Can somebody tell me around how much the shots will cost? The cost isn’t a huge problem but I just want to know.

Looking for the best puppy formula for Jack Russell Pups, The mother is getting ready to have the puppies and in previous litters she will not let her puppies eat. I am caring for this dog, she is not mine. I have alot of experience with puppies but not feeding the day of birth? Not sure when I should start feeding either

I have two puppies from the same litter, both females and they are about four months old. The smaller one is constantly picking on her bigger sister. I understand that it is how puppies play but it starts to become a problem because the smaller one causes the other to yelp in pain and still doesn’t stop after that. She was a calm puppy before but she is now starting to growl and snap at myself and my family. Is she just trying to establish dominance? My father isn’t very understanding and says if it doesn’t stop we will have to get rid of her, but I don’t want that. Does anyone have any advice on how to stop her behavior?

michelle b asked:


At first, she would take the puppy out of the crate and feed it by itself in a hidden area (under a bed or desk). Now the mother takes the puppy out, pees on her (or near her), then goes back to the rest of the puppies leaving the puppy alone. This has been happening for a couple weeks and they’re a month old. The dog is a first time mother.

Just one week ago, my dog had puppies. I was wondering how old newborn pups have to be before you can start holding them. I have been very careful about handling these newborn puppies ever since they were born.
Also, my mom has this firm belief that newborn puppies will get suck from being handled too much. Is that true?

They are greatdane puppies from a large litter (10) . They apparently have not been fed well and are now too small for there age. I intend to feed them well hence, but I fear the loss of their first 8 weeks will affect the full potential of their growth. Is there still time to salvage, as I am aware that dogs grow well only within a certain stage.
