If you need any advice over the phone pm me and I will give you my number as I am only about 20 mins away from you.
I also have a very good friend who breeds chihuahua's and she also may be able to help you .
Take care

The pup just wont go on the nipple at all, i keep trying to put him there but he wont suck, he is VERY strong and just pushs it away with his nose
he isnt weak at all
He has a round tummy
Im getting welpi down him
I just wont understand the vets reasoning for not being worried about weight gain. They keep saying vet and nurse as long as he is strong dont worry
