puppies, few questions
hi, my pups will be 2 weeks this saturday, they are all doing great but just got a few questions..
they were all very simular in size when born however now there is a small one, and when i say small i mean tiny compared with the others, both girls were the same when born yet now ones nearly twice the size of the other,is that just normal in a litter for one to grow quicker/one grow slower? the small girl is eating great,shes quickest to find the teat and seems well in every way apart from shes not realy grown at all. second.. they dont make any noise? ive heared them make the odd squiek but apart from that they are realy quite,had a friend round who seemed to think they should be making more noise  have added a few pictures to sort of show the size difference...

Re: puppies, few questions
Peace, and quiet contentment is what you want to hear from the whelping pen at this stage. I would try waking her and putting her to the nipple more often.

Re: puppies, few questions
shes always eating and although shes small she charges the others out of the way to get to the milk bar
 she also ahead of the others as her eyes are open and she moves about more than them so hoping shes just on the small side

Re: puppies, few questions
I wouldn't worry, she is small but perfectly formed.
Don't wish for noise!  It will come soon enough. They are probable just contented right now - soon they will sound like demented seagulls and drive you bonkers LOL!
