what age can you take puppies food and water away for the night
As the puppies eat more solid food, the bitch may be let away from the puppies for an ever longer period of time. By the time the puppies are 6Â½-7 weeks of age, they should be fully weaned from the dam's milk, eating dry food, and drinking water. If the weaning is not rushed, she will naturally start decreasing milk production, as the puppies increase their intake of solid food.
