After the first 4 weeks from birth we introduce mum & pups to the puppy creche, at this point we start to supplementary feed the pups, as they are becoming increasingly more demanding on mum & mum needs help.
WE DO NOT TAKE MUM AWAY FROM HER PUPS, As the pups become less reliant on mum, she has her own warm sleeping area, but can choose when she wants to be with her pups.
From week 4 to 7 she will slowly start to take herself away from her pups naturally, mainly because her pups will still try to suckle from her, but she wont want them to as they become older.
We believe this method reduces stress on both mum and pups and allows mum to reduce producing milk gradually and naturally.
By week 5 the pups personalities start to develop and they need stimulation and interaction, at this point we introduce them to the puppy creche toys
The puppy creche toys, have been designed and made by us, to encourage stimulation and introduce the pups to different noises and movements.
When we designed the "Puppy Creche" we tried to make it as homely and practical as possible, the floor has under floor heating and the pups can watch tv from the comfort of their bed, but we can easily keep everything clean and hygienic.
