Lee Hough Webboard User Reg: 11-11-2002 Posts: 192 Loc: Offline	I offer pups a mix - soupy yogurt, Structure and water soaked high quality puppy kibble mashed up as soon as they can lap...as early as 3 weeks...by 5 they are eating pretty well. After they are eating well, they get cottage cheese alternated with yogurt. My last litter have ears all up by 12 weeks, 2 were up at 6 weeks, the 3 pups with bigger ears took a bit longer...they get raw a couple of times a week to help develop as well. Pups all have had good weight and growth rate. I don't let them go before 8 weeks, and will keep them to 10 if undecided who is going where. Against PA state law to let them go before 8.
