My 2 year old female chihuahua gave birth to her first litter of 6 puppies about 2 days ago. 2 of them already died because they were so small and weren’t able to eat very much. Now there are 4 left, 2 of which seem to have gained a healthy weight, 1 is starting to gain a little weight but is still skinny, and the last doesn’t seem to gain any weight at all. For the two smaller puppies I’ve been helping them to their mother’s breast so that they can be fed because they can’t seem to do it on their own. I direct them towards the breast every time the other puppies eat. But even then they never eat very much. What can I do about this?

When I let my puppies in the house they immediately start looking for food on the floor. I keep their food bowl full, so it isn’t a matter of hunger.

We had bought one from this lady, and it turns out she got robbed. They stole three out of the six puppies. The lady told us to just take our puppy home since she didn’t want to hold the responsability incase she got robbed again. She said that they were old enough anyway, but they can’t even walk yet. Do you think they will be fine if we bottle feed them puppy formula?

Bella asked:


I have a male jack russell and a female maltese x king charles cavalier and they are both 3 months old. The female seems to be getting very jealous of the male, everytime I have the male in my arms she will try to bite him, jump on him and start yapping.

I am starting to feel very sorry for the male, she won’t leave him alone and I’m starting to think that the puppies may be incompatiable.

Is there anything I can do to stop this behaviour?

I have 2 four month old puppies but they love to walk in front of my feet and trip me. Anyone have any tips on how I can get them to either walk on the side of me or behind me?
