Question
Is 8 lbs for an 8 week old female bull dog a good weight? Or does that sound small? Thank you!

Answer
Hello Amber - this would be a great question for your vet.  It is hard for me to tell with 8 lbs and 8 weeks.  Your vet can look at the structure of your little English Kid and explain the waist/rib and muscle structure.  

Also, much depends on the size of mom and dad ....

Next time you are in for shots, talk to your vet about your concerns.

Also, Make sure your baby is on NuVET Plus - this is a great supplement. ..... IMMUNE system Blaster /  for a healthy life.!
Another idea is - Salmon Oil - 1/4 teaspoon per day - mixed into the dog food.


Have fun with the PUPPY!
