the good thing is that they all and i mean are eating now. now i don't have to worry about one of them ... he finally got the hint that he had to eat to live... now my only thing is that i have to deworm them this weekend and i dreed the fact that they will be pooping more than they wood normally. especially the fact that they will be pooping out the worms !!!! ewwwwww!!!! but we got to do what we got to do so they can survive!!! those ar emy babies... but as far as the mom yeah shes crying all day and everyday since she came back from the vet.... the weird thing is that the puppies aren't crying and haven't cried at all. I wonder is that a good thing or bad??? i can't wait til she dries up so she can go back in their with them. I just feel bad because by the time she gets to back with them one will be off the their new home... the rest i'm keeping!!! the vt told me to wait til he was at least 4 weeks and completely dewormed to let him go before they build a bond with me and his mother... I think that he's to small to let go that early but since he eats and all there is no reason to keep him more than i have too. plus hif new momma is ready fof him to come home...
