we start worming our pups at 2-3 weeks and worm every 1-2 weeks until sold. The mama gets wormed at the same time the pups do. Congrats on the new litter.

Did the puppy's mother die? Other than that there is no reason for a puppy to be taken from its mother before eight weeks. Has the puppy been to the vet? The vet will tell you what it should be eating/drinking. You are completely delusional if you think that it is okay to leave a 4 week old puppy alone while you are at work. The pup is not nearly old enough to hold her urine for hours on end.

Puppies will be weaned by 7 weeks old, but shouldn't be re-homed until a minimum of 8 weeks old.

Momma dog can be dewormed at any time. The puppies should be dewormed for roundworms and hookworms starting at 2 weeks of age and be repeated at 4, 6, and 8 weeks of age.

Make sure Momma dog is getting extra nutrients (being fed ''puppy'' food at this time).

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://biturl.im/aU2WC

A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

It is very difficult to train a dog if you do not have the proper dog training equipment. The right piece of equipment, when properly fitted, helps aid in communication between you and your pet.

Leather Dog Collars, Harnesses, and Leashes

Basic training equipment that every owner needs is a leather dog collar and a dog leash. When you are placing the collar on your pet, you will want to make sure that it is snug enough that it won't slide over your dog's head should they balk, but it isn't so tight that it is restricts their ability to breathe.

Every time you put the collar on your dog, you need to check the fit. Puppies grow, and older dogs can gain and lose weight as well, which will also impact how the collar fits. In addition to making sure that the collar fits properly, you will want to check to make sure that the buckle isn't showing signs of strain, that the stitching is good, and that the leather hasn't developed dry rot.

Many people also like to have a leather dog harness for their dog. Many dog owners feel that a dog harness is more secure, and also provides better control than a traditional dog collar. The harness allows you to move the dog's entire torso, as opposed to simply jerking on the neck when you need the dog to stop or heel.

Knowing How to Properly Use Dog Training Equipment

Knowing the type of equipment that you need is only part of the dog training experience. You also need to know how to properly use it. The best way to make sure that you are using the equipment properly is by signing up for a dog obedience course.

The great thing about dog obedience courses is that you will be working with someone who knows how dog training equipment works, and they will also be able to offer tips and suggestions about what you can do when you and your pet seem to be having communication issues. It is important to note that if you have a pet that tends to be aggressive, whether towards other dogs or people, the instructor might suggest that your dog wear a dog muzzle. This will allow the other dog owners in the surrounding environment to feel more secure, and may also prevent the outbreak of a fight from ensuing between your dog and other dogs in the class.

Advanced Dog Training Options

As your pet gets older, you may decide to explore more training options. Once a dog has mastered basic obedience, there are several different options available to you. Some people decide that they want to teach their puppy how to move through obstacles, and then later go on to compete in agility classes.

Some people even decide to learn more about having their dog certified to be a search and rescue dog. If you decide that you want to pursue a specific type of advanced dog training, you will be required to purchase additional dog training equipment that is applicable for your specific needs.

The exact type of equipment that you and your dog will need will depend on the type of training you pursue. For example, if you are hoping to utilize your dog as a means of protection, chances are highly likely that any attack dog training equipment that you will need will be entirely different from the majority of the training tools that you would purchase for agility training.

When you have the proper dog training tools, and have been educated about how they should be used in the proper manner, you will find that training your canine family member is much easier than you would expect.

If properly trained, they should also understand whistle and gesture equivalents for all the relevant commands, e.g. short whistle or finger raised sit, long whistle or flat hand lay down, and so on.

It's important that they also get gestures and whistles as voice may not be sufficient over long distances and under certain circumstances.

To the two previous posts, 1) she didn't breed them, 2) they were strays that had puppies under her shed, 3) why didn't you read her entire post so you would know this? 4) it is easy to criticise when you are ignorant of the facts. Read the entire post before you make assumptions because as we all know making an assumption makes an *** out of you..

Worm them now also get them vaccinated. Get a vet to do it. Now is a good time to start weaning.

4 weeks old: Offer the pups some canned puppy food (wellness or Merrick are good choices) and mix in 1pt canned to 3pts goats milk (never use cow's milk for a dog) This should form a gruel. Do this for one week feeding them 4-6 times per day.

5 weeks old: The next week decrease the amount of milk so that by the end of this week they are eating pure canned food.

6 weeks old: Next week start adding a bit of high quality puppy kibble (No corn, wheat or soy). by the end of this week they should be at 3 pts wet to 1 pt dry also adding in some more goats milk to soften the kibble.

7 weeks old: Next week make it half and half moist kibble to wet food. (At this point you can gradually reduce to 3-4 feedings per day until they are six months)

8 weeks old: The next week the should be at three parts kibble to one part wet.

Finlay you can choose if you want them on dry or if you want a bit of wet in there as well.

At this point the puppies are 8 weeks old and can go to their new homes. Good luck and god bless!
