Well, the pups are eating well. Dennis had them eating last night and we continued today. Output has increased. The introduction of food does that. This is not their 1st food but as you can see we have softened kibble, sprinkled with chicken and mousse. They LOVE it - all of them.
A couple tried the water. A couple said nah. We will continue to get them to realize the benefit. This is the 1st step of the road to no moms at night. We do this to enable them to make the transition of being comfortable with being independent of canine mom at times.
They will not go upstairs till they are eating food and water, they also have to be exposed with each other and getting along. Tomorrow we will start play together for 5 minutes at a time. They will also get exposure to upstairs. Exposures to new places can create stresses but that's the idea so they build their coping skills.
