Updated May 09, 2016. Cecum cancer is a type of colon cancer, but the signs and symptoms of this disease are sometimes elusive. The cecum demarcates the beginning of your large intestine. This pouch-like section of intestine connects a portion of the small intestine, called the ileum, to the ascending colon.
Most good breeders don't let their puppies leave until around 8 weeks of age (and in toy breeds, 10 or 12 weeks), which means that your puppy may not have been leash trained prior to you picking him up. For large breeds, this may not be the case.
One of the first questions new puppy owners ask is âAt what age should we get our new puppy groomed?â Most puppies should see a groomer after theyâve had their second round of vaccinations, no later than 16 weeks. At this time theyâre still trusting, and willing to let strangers handle them, and will acclimate to strange noises and sensations comparatively easily.
