lovemy....ok what temp was your doodle Spooky rasied in as he may be adjusting. bring him to a vet soon for a well visit , advice etc.
Most puppies are fed 3 or 4 times a day as they are growing. You can also look on the dog food bag to see weight and food amount to feed as well. Although your vet would probably be better at this advice . Spooky is adorable and lookslike he has a wee devil in those eyes hahahahaa lov the pics!!!!!!! congrats again and cute name!

Thank you guys. We are taking him to the vet first thing tomorrow morning. I will have to ask the breeder what temp they have in their house. Spooky has a very thick coat I am thinking he is just hot after running around the house and playing. I am going to add 4th feeding to his day and will speak to the vet about how to feed him and what temp he thinks we should have in the house. Boy I am a little rusty with this stuff the last time I had a puppy 8 years ago when I got Hope and prior to that it was my 13 year old lab who just passed way a month ago. Since than I have not had any puppies but I think I did a decent job raising them and hope to do the same for this little guy.

Please wait until your puppy is 8 wks old before using the shampoo for fleas. Most will say not to use on puppies less than 8 wks of age.
As for feeding, yes, feed him 3 times a day. It's usually about 1/2 cup each sitting and you can adjust that as he grows. It's usually a good idea to go by the amount suggested on the back of your puppy food bag. Sounds like you are having fun with Spooky. I bet he is a character, can't wait to see the pics.

Congrats again!! Spooky looks like a doll!! Is he the one who pruned the plant, or is he blaming it on the kitty siblings??

Thank you everyone for the compliments on little Spooky. He is a spit fire and I have just learned how to come him down. When he goes over board with playing I give me time out in the crate. After 5 minutes in the crate he comes out all come and collected. I learned this today at 2:00am when he walk me up to go to the bathroom and after I took him outside he wanted to play and was very excitable. I put him in the crate for a few minutes than took him out and he went right to sleep and let me sleep too. I literally fell like I have a child it's so cute he wears me out.
