    I wouldn't leave a pup that young outside (but then again my dogs live inside!). You are in Perth and I've heard that parvo-virus is going around at the moment so don't take him out before his needles too. He definitely has been taken from his mumma too young, hence why he's suckling on your your other dog. It's nice she is tolerant of that! They will be best of friends!

    Yes, he was taken too young but I think I gave him a better home than where he was staying. I got him from a lady on a farm who was keeping all 5 puppies in a cat carrier. The mother dog was not there and they were left alone. So at least he can run around now and has a surrogate mother. He had his first immunisation today but I won't be taking him out until he is a bit bigger. He is too small still. The vet gave him the all clear so that's good news!
