"My GD Finley came from a litter of all reds. Both parents were red. They are still all red but somehow, Finley is apricot turning more white by the day. He’s 18 weeks now. Kinda frustrating that the red litter from the breeder was  $500…"

"I may take a few days, but a normal puppy will not starve himself. He will start to eat at mealtime. "

"I will try this! Thank you!"

"When my dog was a pup and got dirty, if I couldn't just brush it out then I would rinse him in plain water and towel dry.  Too much shampoo of any kind can be harsh."

"A couple of suggestions for foods he might like better, and which are of much better quality. Fromm's Puppy Gold would be a good choice. Wellness CORE Puppy would be another one."

"Try this: At mealtime, put your dog's food down for him and sit down nearby. Keep all distractions to an absolute minimum. No kids playing nearby or engaging with the puppy, nobody coming in and out of the room, nobody calling out from other…"

"Thank you! And I will check out the food group, as my poor pup hasn’t eaten in now 4 days and vet can’t take us in until Monday "

"Sarah, we have a large, very active group here with a list of recommended food brands and lots of information on feeding "picky" eaters. (Hint: no free feeding) None of the brands you mentioned are on our list. Please join us in the Food…"

"He is doing a little damage I believe to his tail. As far as food, we have the pickiest water ever, and he has little to no interest in eating, we’ve tried blue buffalo, royal k9, iams, wet food, dry food. Right now he is eating iams smart…"

"ok thank you for the info!"

"Thank you for making my post more specific. I should have added ‘if your pup has problems digesting fish oil.’   My concern was the puppy’s age so I’m glad to learn that isn’t an issue. "

"You don't want to use both EPO and fish oil in a young puppy. Welactin is fish oil, and that should be fine unless he can't tolerate it. Burt's Bees does make an oatmeal based dog shampoo.However, the very best shampoo for itchy…"

"It’s important to use a dog shampoo rather than a human one. Is the Burt’s Bees a dog shampoo? It’s also critical to rinse well and almost impossible if you don’t  pre dilute the shampoo— put some shampoo and water…"

"Ok great thank you! I will check out that Welactin!"
