I am new here but wanted to ask a few questions. My moms Basset is going to have puppies soon. Mom is acting like Calley (her female) is a queen
. She has made a den out her crate (it is 40x28x30 (I think those are the rough esetements of the crate). She has started taking her tempature and it droped from 100.2 (at 5pm) to 99.4 (at 9pm)tonight. So soon we will have puppies. The vet took an exray and said 6 maybe 7. He said he counted 6 heads and extra vertabra so that is where the 7 maybe comes from.
This is a first litter for everyone, dog, mom and myself and we are excited. I have done a lot of reserch on GSD's and have the book Monks of New Skeet. Is this ok to use on Bassets? They have many different things you should do to socilise puppies and make sure their temperment is the best it can be.
You should see all the stuff they have gotten for the puppies and for the new mom. :
She is getting SO spoiled. Can you spoil a mom too much?
Can you hold the puppies too much? I get to doggie sit since they have to be gone on memorial day weekend and they so dont want to leave.
The puppies will be about, maybe (who knows when they will pop out)at the oldest 8 days. Please tell me that is way to young for them to be traveling (they would be in an RV with all their own things).
I know next to nothing about bassets, but wanted to ask as I will be responable for these guys. I might even get to have pick of the litter if I want it (I have no idea what to look for in a good basset can you give me some clues)?
