Liver Boy did not gain much at all since I weighed yesterday. This is not good. I am a bit worried. I was putting him on a teat each time I checked on them, I will have to make sure to do that again. I hope he can pick it up again. He is not dehydrated. He is strong and has good suck reflex and really suckling on a front teat now, so not sure why he did not gain much. This is why you should weigh them every day. So you can notice when one is not gaining as much as the others, hopefully the breeder can intervene and help before a puppy is lost.
8:10 p.m. I have been putting the liver boy on a teat whenever I get a chance. Just weighed him and he is now 20 5/8 oz, so still gaining. I will have to keep on giving him special attention.
