Oh he is beautiful, can you carry him with you?
In your clothes?
I brought up a 3wk old puppy, fed her every 2 hrs day and night.
I am sure he will live.
Why Andy?

well I looked the breed up, sounds nice.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Fox_Terrier
I don't know but I wanted a strong name and the name Andrew came right to mind. I've never known a Andrew so we shall see. He is in a warm wrap on my lap Mia and will go everywhere with me. I'm committed. Who needs sleep haha luckily tomorrow is my day off so IF he makes it thru the night we can get on a schedule like I did with my Belle years ago..course she was a rottie!

I stopped my friend Edna's to drop off some clothes for her grandson (5 of em coming to visit) and she was all frantic cuz her bitch had died and there were 5. She was trying to bottle feed the 4 but she said one was too cold and was gonna die so she folded him in a towel. Well, I quietly asked if I could try and she handed him over.
Funny one of my wishes was for a new man in my life  wasn't counting on a puppy but I had to try. I took him to the shop and risked putting him under warm running water to bring his temp up, then dried him. Went to the physical therapy room and asked if I could borrow a heater and they did, all ooohing and kept reheating it all day.
Told me I could borrow it so I am home now, pot of water on the slow cooker so I can put the packets in to reheat. Last feed he suckled! Pooped and peed and is still asleep, he is all pink now and wiggly.  If I can keep him alive for the next 48 hrs he has a great chance. Sigh, I love him already.

Cool idea !! Did you get him some puppy milk replacer? If he is actively nursing then he has a very good chance. Did he get moms colostrum? What do the other dogs think??A heating pad on low does good for keeping them warm. Done it many times leave a corner where he can get off and they will snuggle to the warmth when they start getting cool. When we had the kennel we almost always had a pup or two in the house for helping need to ask Edna if the mom had been wormed. A mild wormer at 7 to 10 days is a good idea if you aren't sure. Oh he is a cutie.

I bought a bottle and puppy milk from the vet in town. He was born the 17th so he did get mom's colostrum and antibodies. Dam was wormed and up to date but I do plan to keep on top of him. No heating pad but I do have one of heated/vibrating chair things for pain. Kasha is not to sure but being very good ignoring him for now. I do hope I can keep him. Edna had gone to the shop but I went home, she was gonna clip his tail  . I know she raised this litter to sell but I did save his wittle life and am now lovin him so we shall see. Thanks for all the support. Andrew and I thank you.

If you can rig a cloth (scarf?) carrier that wraps up against your heart, he will have your body heat AND your heart energy and reassurance......
