We have been busy both day and night taking care of Ruska and making sure all is going well with our tiny new arrivals. Puppies can loose up to 10% of their birth weight in the first 24 hour. I am happy to say, all of the puppies have re-gained their birthweight and more.
Ruska is an amazing mama. She is loving and protective and constantly caring for her babies. Because she has 10 puppies, she can not feed everyone at the same time; they have to feed in shifts. We give extra attention making sure all the puppies get their share of milk. I continue to be pleased at our daily weigh in ………. everyone is gaining nicely! Newborn puppies grow and develop so quickly it is no wonder that all they do is eat and sleep.
