You could get your daughter a dog and a guinea pig at the same time. She'd just have to wait a few months. Is welping pups as much work as it seems? I don't know, I've never done it. But, I guess I'm going to find out. I work from home and the wife has a 9-5, so it'll all fall on me, I'm sure. Yo'll have to be ready to cut and tie off the cords as well as wipe off the sacs if the mother refuses to... one came out not breathing right away but luckily did soon after... the last of the four refused to come out and we had to take her to the vet and get him induced... I'd say it's more work after because you have to make sure the mother is feeding the pups. we actually had to hold her down on her side to let the little ones latch on multiple times a day. It's a lot of work keeping them fed and safe that young. sometimes the mother helps and other times not as much. Yeah, that's my biggest fear knowing our dogs. I'm happy to do the work, they're both AKC but we wouldn't sell the pups for profit or anything. I'm trying to figure out a way to make sure the pups go to good homes without having to price people out of getting one. In any case, she just went into heat yesterday, no use in counting your pugs before they hatch. Siren.Mosin said: » they look like someone bashed their face with the door. My pugs are not amused...

It's pretty fun watching them fumble around the first few days while they find their legs. Really really small too like sit in your hand small. Lakshmi.Flavin said: » We just gave 3 of the four away to families we knew. Thinking back on it I'm not really sure why we did it in the first place but yeah... Blackie did stay with us as a faithful pet for 15 years. He was pretty awesome. You're going to be stuck with them for the first month or so as they're dependent on their mother. It's pretty fun watching them fumble around the first few days while they find their legs. Really really small too like sit in your hand small. We got our male at about 10 weeks old, the female at 6 weeks. It's crazy how much they grow in the first few months.

They do. They're cute, but in that "so hideous they've come full circle back to adorable" kind of way. I grew up with a Basset Hound, so I know that spectrum well.

My wife calls them Chudilki, which roughly translates to "amazed" or "in wonder". Kinda like a chicken, everytime they blink they're in a whole new world.

It's a lot of work keeping them fed and safe that young. sometimes the mother helps and other times not as much. Edit: I'd suggest having someone there who's familiar with the process if possible. I've acted as a midwife for cats on a number of occasions. One of them was a brilliant mother who had 9 kittens and split them up into 2 groups so that she could nurse all of them effectively. One of her daughters that we kept gave birth to a litter of 4, and couldn't even handle that many. Instinct and genetics are no guarantee of quality, apparently.

There's a huge flea market in both Houston and DFW called Traders' Village. Whenever we go visit either my dad or the in-laws we'll go poke around at either if it's nice out.
They always have various exotic birds and animals there along with dog breeders. I know that, most likely, there's probably not a good outcome for the loads of animals people are hocking there. I always get the notion in my head that it would be really nice to have an aviary until I start thinking about the winter and having to clean bird cages. There's also that moral dilemma of: If you're buying animals that were probably brought over illegally and bred in possibly horrible conditions, aren't you contributing to it by creating the demand?
