Dot's Diary:..................
Puppy 7) is not thriving like the rest and has had minimal weight gain so I am suppliment feeding her every 2 hours. She is a little fighter and very determined. Only time will tell her fate...
Up date on 'Tiny Dot (puppy #7). Day 12 and Dot has just made 12oz. Still having 2 hourly supplimentary feeds during the day and 1 extra feed in night.
Day 14: Tiny Dot is doing well and has just hit 15oz. She is managing to feed off Mum unaided, provided she can sneek a nipple to herself. She can now make a proper seal so that the milk goes down the right way and not back up her nose. She has not got a cleft pallet or any visable problem.
Everyone's eyes are begining to open, however this is not an attractive time for photos, so will wait a few more days.
Day 16: A few new pics at bottom of page.
Tiny Dot is now 17 1/2oz. Doing well. Strong and very mobile. Still having 3-4 extra feeds via a plastic syringe during the day, and help to get a 'top-nipple' position at normal feed times.
Day 19: Dot now 20oz. Pups had first Readybrek mixed up with formula milk.
Day 22: Dot 24oz. Lapping milk from a small dish.
Day 23: Dot 27oz. I think she likes Readybrek!
Day 24: Dot 28oz.
Day 25: Dot 29 1/2oz.
Day 26: Dot 30 1/2oz
Day 27: Dot 33oz.
Day 28: Dot 34 1/2oz.
Day 29: Dot 38oz !
Day 30: Dot 39 1/2oz.
Day 31: Dot 40 3/4oz.
Day 32: Dot 42 3/4oz.
Day 33: Dot 44 3/4oz. = (2 lbs 12 3/4oz)
Day 34: Dot 48 oz. = (3 lbs)
6 weeks: Dot 4lbs.
7 weeks: Dot 5lbs 8oz.
Pups 6 weeks old: All the puppies, including Tiny Dot, passed their eye examination at The Animal Health Trust at Newmarket.
Dot, as I had expected, has Normal hearing in her right ear but none in her left.
She continues to develop well as she gradually catches up with her litter mates.
