Doberman puppy owners - track your weight gain here

[alphafemale]

Wednesday Mila had her fecal check. So we're all clear on her Coccidia (thank goodness!).

Mila
8.5 weeks 11lbs
9.5 weeks 14.4 lbs (first vet visit, and treatment for coccidia)
10 weeks - 16 lbs
11 weeks - 19 lbs
12 weeks - 22 lbs (coccidia clear) - 15 3/4" tall.

I found an easy method to measure her height for now (until she's older). Only doing it because I'm so curious to see how much she pops upward, haha. Stand her on the bathroom counter, then tell her "wait" That's her stay command. I generally teach my dogs the "stand" command too but she hasn't needed it. When grooming a Shih Tzu however, it's helpful.

here's Nero's new pics!
12 Weeks with a wonky ear. LOL

 

[alphafemale]

@NikiL02 looks similar in size to Mila. Her chest may be a bit broader though. I
like the wonky ear! He's gorgeous.

 

[NikiL02]

I don't know how he does it but if creases near the front and folds forward.

It does look like her chest is a bit wider. She's definitely caught up in weight.

Nero - born 6/18/2016

6wks...............6lbs
7wks 5d...........10lbs
8wks 3d...........12lbs
9wks..............15lbs
10wks.............19lbs
11wks.............21lbs
11wks 6d..........23lbs
13wks.............25lbs

Keeping steady at 2lbs a week now. Just started to transition into a new food and I think he likes it so far. He will pick out those bits first! The kibble is bigger in size so he actually has to chew it. He's been pretty good with his eating. After his shots and deworming last week he vomited. I don't know if it was from too much play too soon after eating or the vaccination or dewormer. However I gave him heartgard+ this week and he had a loose stool for a couple of days too... Like super runny the first day. I'm wondering if he has a sensitivity to the invermectin or if this is pretty common. I've given it to horses without issues but dogs and horses have vastly different digestive systems obviously. LOL

I think puppies in general have more sensitive tummies so all of those things together might have caused it, or it might be unrelated. Hopefully it will clear up soon.

 

[NikiL02]

He's had some solid stools since then thankfully.

She's beautiful! To be honest, if she never filled out anymore, I'd be perfectly happy if she was mine. She's got good muscle over her IMHO. And such character to her face! Sometimes she's looking mischievous, and others just serene.

 

[GennyB]

Well this should be an interesting thread for me to join. I'm still waiting on pics of my girl. What I know so far is she is a whooper! Breeders said all the pups are big especially considering it was a litter of 10. I'm just glad I'm not Mom......can you imagine? 10 big pups! Umm, NO THANKS!

My daughter was 9lbs 3.6oz. Yeah, I can't imagine 10 of them.

I was 11.6 when I was born. No wonder I was adopted. Lol

They are all gorgeous pics but that last one.....

That particular one has won my heart!

 

[Tropicalbri's]

I love her build @Prushanks
She is compact muscled up. Bacall looks like her in body but not quite as toned as Miesha yet.

 

[WiglWerm]

@Prushanks she is really GORGEOUS!!

 

[bomary]

This prob sounds weird, but I love her neck!! She's elegant, and I cannot believe how "grown up" she looks.

That's what Mila came from too. Mom had ten pups. Our shih tzu had five and that was enough of a job for her so my hat is off to these Dobies w more than 5! Lol Mila's breeder didn't do such a good job w feeding her once she was weaned so she was underweight when we got her. Skin and bones. She also had coccidia which didn't help her. I'll look forward to seeing her pics!
