GIVE YOUR PUPPY THE BEST START in LIFE
The first weeks and months of life are key to laying the foundations of a healthy, happy life.
Puppies stay close to their mother, and spend most of their time sleeping or feeding.
By the second week, their eyes are open, and they gradually begin to hear. Handling them very gently and regularly at this stage will make them more comfortable around humans as they grow.
As their eyes begin to open and first steps are taken, puppies begin to explore their new world. Most will now be able to lap water from a bowl. Moreover, puppies can now pass urine & faeces without their mother's help. If this development doesn't happen by the end of this stage, a trip to the vet is advised
Puppies begin to learn to live with others. This is a key stage in the physical and sexual development of puppies, so ensuring they are eating food designed to meet the needs of this specific developmental stage is vital. This is a good time to start to set activity and exercise schedules for your pet. Speak to your vet about a vaccination schedule and whether you should consider spaying or neutering your puppy.
