The sound of puppies getting a let down (surge of milk) is so satisfying and adorable, you can hear them drinking so much already just 1.5 days post-birth! - I make sure to come and feed mom right inside her nesting area because for the first three days, they don’t like to leave the pups too much as they are trying to establish a solid milk supply. I soak food in liquid calcium and water to ensure she gets tons of fluids. They are less likely to go to their water bowl to drink, so I soak the food 50/50 to keep them hydrated and help with digestion. Calcium helps with labour, milk supply and mental soundness in the week after birth. I don’t give anything too different from her regular food or she will have loose stool for the first little while after birth, since they eat a few placentas! I’ll add an egg every couple bowls and a dollop of plain Greek yogurt, but I don’t go too crazy or she will not feel well. Fibre4 (powdered probiotic) is another great additive post birth to help keep stool firm. - Once you’ve whelped a few litters, you get to know their little tricks. I find my females will refuse to go outside to do their business, but if they don’t go, they will refuse to eat or drink. So right after birth, I pick them up and bring them out. Usually first timers won’t opt to go themselves for the first 3 days, so I do the carry-out method each time. Seasoned moms usually know the drill and trust the process, so I only have to carry them out in the first 12 hours. The more often they can get out to do their business, the more they will eat and drink, the higher the milk supply! They regulate their bowels/bladders by holding off if they don’t want to have to go outside. 🤍 www.abovethebarrterriers.com 🤍 🤎 https://abovethebarrterriers.com/current-litter 🤎 #ratterrierworld #ratterrier #ratterriersofinstagram #ratterrierbreeder #ratterriermoments #puppylove #ratterrierpuppy #puppy #ratterrierlove #ratterriers #dogbreeder #dogscanada #doglov

My Deckers are so playful.

These Rat Terrier puppies love, and I mean LOVE, sleeping on this pile of wood. They play here and sleep here every day. They have 2 whole acres and plenty to do, but nope. It’s the wood pile for them. 🪵www.abovethebarrterriers.com #ratterrierworld #ratterrierpuppy #ratterriers #ratterriermoments #ratterriersofig #ratterriersofinstagram #ratterrierlove #ratterrier #ratterrierlife #ratterrierbreeder #doglovers #dogsoffacebook #dogbreedersofinstagram #dogloversclub #dogbreederslife #dogbreederlife #dogsarefamily #doglover #dogsofcanada #dogbreeders #dogsofinstagram #dogloversofinstagram #dogstagram #dogs #puppylove #puppy #puppytraining #puppylovers #puppyeyes #puppylife

A little catch up on a few puppies out of Toni x Rufus 2022. The litter is fairly consistent in structure. Repeating this litter very soon, as I see the signs with Toni FINALLY. FIIINALLYYY going into heat. IE: flirting, growling, more needy, more attractive to the “men” of the property. Soon the males will start brawling and then her heat will start. Yay! #olddominionterriersofinstagram #ODT #olddominionterriers #olddominionterrier #deckerterriers #deckerterrierlove #deckerterrier #deckerterriersofinstagram #ratterrierworld #ratterrierpuppy #ratterriers #ratterriermoments #ratterriersofig #ratterriersofinstagram #ratterrierlove #ratterrier #ratterrierlife #ratterrierbreeder #doglovers #dogsoffacebook #dogbreedersofinstagram #dogloversclub #dogbreederslife #dogbreederlife #dogsarefamily #doglover #dogsofcanada #dogbreeders #dogsofinstagram #dogloversofinstagram
Outdoor playtime for the puppies today. Lucy, the matriarch, joined us. The clip of her reminds me of 101 Dalmatians, when the cow was swinging her tail and the puppies were going crazy behind her. #ratterrierworld #ratterrierpuppy #ratterriers #ratterriermoments #ratterriersofig #ratterriersofinstagram #ratterrierlove #ratterrier #ratterrierlife #ratterrierbreeder #puppylove #puppy #puppytraining #puppylovers #puppyeyes #puppylife #puppylover #puppyforsale #puppygram #puppydog #puppyoftheday #doglovers #dogsoffacebook #dogbreedersofinstagram #puppysocialization #dogbreederslife #dogbreederlife #dogsarefamily #doglover #dogtraining
Bonding through play is integral to training your puppy. You may end up with an anxious, under-stimulated dog with confidence issues if you don’t foster a strong bond in the weeks your pup comes home. I love implementing the flirt pole and teaching fetch early on. Having a good “drop it” is easy to teach if they are eager to play. After a good play session, they need a nap or they often get overstimulated and therefore over active and bitey. Hope this helps 🤍 ✨—- link in bio —-✨ www.abovethebarrterriers.com #puppylove #puppy #puppytraining #puppylovers #puppyeyes #puppylife #puppylover #puppyforsale #puppygram #puppydog #puppyoftheday #ratterrierworld #ratterrierpuppy #ratterriers #ratterriermoments #ratterriersofig #ratterriersofinstagram #ratterrierlove #ratterrier #ratterrierlife #ratterrierbreeder #doglovers #dogsoffacebook #dogbreedersofinstagram #dogloversclub #dogbreederslife #dogbreederlife #dogsarefamily #doglover #dogsofcanada
