Matron's continue on diet specified above. Puppies are subject to human handling by adults and children (children under adult supervision), Neurological Stimulation, weight checks, and rear dewclaw removal. At 2 weeks of age we begin weekly deworming.

These weeks consist of all of the above and a few new things get introduced. Such as, bathing, toenail trims, outside introduction (weather permitting), woodland wildlife and cattle introduction, playtime, and various puppy toys designed to stimulate their minds. Around the 4th-6th week of age puppy weaning begins. All pups are then fed Iam's DHA Enhanced Puppy Food. Microchipping is performed between the puppies 5th-6th week of age.
