Taking Care of a Newborn Puppy the Right Way

​

​

Unlike what most people think, the mother dog is the best when it comes to handling puppies. It knows way better than a human when the puppy is well or unwell. It understands when the newborn is hungry or full too. As a dog owner, you should let the bond between the puppy and the mother to flourish while you concentrate on making the mother dog comfortable. Some of the way to ensure comfort is to make sure she has enough food and water and sleeps in a warm place.

A newborn puppy has many needs that range from feeding to training. Dogs, just like humans, aren't born with all the instincts. They tend to learn more as they develop. Basic training is essential in the early life of the puppy and as it grows the mother will ensure that it learns as much as possible. At this point, get the mother dog food that is rich in vital nutrients to keep it strong and enable it to produce quality milk for the puppy.

Mother dogs are crucial in the development and safety of the puppy. While humans are interested in newborn puppies, mother dogs see them as vulnerable and protect them against those who handle them badly. If you have kids, let them learn to play with the puppy carefully without causing any alarm to the mother. This way, the puppy will not only be safe, but the mother will be happy too.

If you have bought an orphaned newborn puppy or the mother dog has passed on leaving you with a newborn puppy, then you have quite a lot on your plate to ensure that the young puppy grows to be healthy. Ensure that it is covered in a blanket in order to keep warm. Since the puppy is very fragile, you have to help it feed or suckle nutritious food that can be bought from the nearest shopping mall. If you have no idea of the food to get, then you should arrange for a visit to the vet in order to get some help and more info. 

Taking care of a newborn puppy is fun but also hectic at the same time. When playing with the puppy, you will have the best moments of your life. However, when it is under pain or hungry and you can't really tell what the problem is exactly, then you'll have some of the toughest moments of your life. No matter the situation, make sure to practice extra caution so as not to harm the puppy.
