Hi everyone. Yesterday night (5/15) my Dove female Honor had her second
litter. There were 5 babies, but the first was sadly a stillborn. The four
remaining are doing great and squeaking up a storm! You can add them to the
May pup count.
I have a question about my only baby from the last litter. Honor gave birth
EXACTLY 4 weeks after Jazz (the baby from last litter) was born (on 4/15) So
he is only 4 weeks old. I had to separate him when I saw she was giving
birth- but I am kind of worried about him. I haven't seen him eat or drink
from his food at all. Is there anything I can do to make sure he does okay,
in case he wasn't totally weaned yet? Advice would be greatly appreciated,
as I have never had to wean that early (I generally do it 5-6 weeks) Thanks!
