The pups are virtually weaned now but should I not let Islay into the pups tonight or should I leave it, they are 7 weeks old now, 8 weeks on Thursday.....not too sure as I do not want the pups to miss Isaly too much but on the other hand, want Isaly to stop feeding as 9 pups are taking all her food even though she gets so much extra!!!
P.S forgot to add, the pups are in the kitchen and Islay can only either be in or out of the kitchen!!

I would keep mum away from her babies as they are old enough, give her a chance to recover from feeding 9 pups.

Sandy, I think I did say before to take her away when they were weaned.  They don't need her if they are all eating well.

No, never did.  They were in my bedroom for the first two weeks and I was up and down like a yo yo if any of them so much as breathed differently, then they all went through to the kitchen with Belle in with them to start with, and with the doors all open so I could hear them.  When they were fully weaned at 6 weeks they fed at 10pm and settled down for the night till 8 am next morning.

Morning, a lovely quiet night, I gave them some food around 10.00am but as Steve had to go to work we had to wake the pups up at 7.00 (he usually is up at 6.00 but the pups were sooooo quiet) I shall let them play out for a bit longer today as it appears milder, they have been going out everyday for a play and LOVE it, mini doggies. I took a bit of footage of Ben with them, he is so good Bless him, he took a bit of rag from one of the pups and was pretending to play tug of war, he was very gentle but he did get it in the end of course!!

You ARE joking????  Miss 9 smelly, pooey, noisy, destructive little *&^^&**s??? 
I never miss my puppies, they go one at a time usually, so you don't miss one, then when you are down to one or two they need so much more of your time nd attention that you are glad of the rest when they do go.

Miss them???   Never, the money is a very good sweetener, believe me! ::) ;) ;D ;D
