Shorkie puppy care and feeding
1. You will need to make sure that your tiny Shorkie puppy receives plenty of rest.
2. Do not let your Shorkie puppy over exert himself for the first two weeks.
3. Minimize their activity level so that their blood sugar levels do not drop.
4. Shorkie Puppies are easily stressed by excessive holding.
5. You should limit holding the puppy to 20 minutes per hour.
6. Puppy playpens or play yards are best to house your Shorkie puppy.
7. They can see their surroundings and not feel lonely with TV nearby.
8. Feed your Shorkie puppy 3 times a day. With no food after 7: P.M.
9. This will help your Shorkie puppy to learn to sleep all night
This is what I use for my Shorkie puppies
What you will need:
Graco pack & play playpen or play yard
WeeWee pads or news paper
Small fleece pad for the Shorkie's bed
Child safe toys, that are washable
Shallow food and water bowls
Place the play pen in a highly visible area of your home. Leaving a television
or radio playing softly when you are not home with him will help him not feel lonely.
This reduces stress during the 1 st week after arrival.
On one end of the playpen, place the weewee pad and on the other end place his little bed, blanket, and his toys.
Place his food and water bowls near his bed. The idea is to get him to go to the other
end of the playpen to do his business on the weewee pad.
You can start crate training him when he gets about 6 months old. These puppies have very small bladders and in my opinion crate training is not an option with these little babies until their bladder is larger. They also feel very alone and closed off in a crate.
Please Place it away from an out side door, so they won't get cold drafts.
It's best on a far wall or in another room where there is no outside door at all.
This is the best place to keep your shorkie puppy untill he is through with his shots.
It is best to have the play pen so they don't walk where other people have walked.
Just like a baby, before you put them on the floor to crawl, you will mop with a disinfectant. This would be a good idea if many people come and go in your household.
You may have visitors coming in and may have small children with them.
Your baby will be well protected in this playpen.
You will be able to fold it up and take it with you to relatives homes.
If you wish, or either have one in your office at work
A Playpen is an excellent way to introduce small children to a new puppy.
It gives the puppy a safe haven, while the children are taught to touch and feel with your supervision.
