CNN News Anchor Don Lemon. The old stigma of news anchors being stiff, rigid and dull have just been shattered by CNN Anchor Don Lemon. Donâs new autobiographical book Transparent, was just released, and in this interview Don was COMPLETELY transparent. He literally held nothing back.
A puppy's mother provides vital nutrition, warmth, personal care and attention. Weaning a puppy from its mother is a gradual process that should start at about 4 weeks of age and finish between 7 to 8 weeks of age. Therefore, it's not recommended to take a dog away from its mother before 6 weeks of age.
Puppies removed from their mothers even at 6 weeks and certainly less, exhibit appetite and weight loss, increased distress, higher mortality rates and higher susceptibility to disease. Also, bite inhibition needs to be learnt from the siblings and the mother of the puppy and this can not happen if it is removed from the nest too early. Dogs will not learn that they can not play too rough when removed from mum and their siblings too soon and this is a serious issue that can arise from leaving the family group early.
