hello. I just got my puppy yesterday. 4 week old pit puppy.

Welcome, 4 weeks is very young! 6 is minimum, and that is almost pushing it. Puppies learn very crucial lessons from their mothers from 6-8 weeks of age. Not to mention in some states it is illegal to give away/sell a pup that is younger than 8 weeks.

Is there any way the pup could stay with it's mother a little longer?

EDIT: Sorry!! nevermind, saw your other post about the mom stopping nursing the pups.

Hi, 4 weeks is really young. Are you bottle feeding the pup with formula? I have 6 "Blue" Pitbull puppies, that are 5 weeks today. I have a Rednose pit named, Cassie. She is 3 years old. My daughter has a female & male blue pit, she lives with us. Honey, the blue female is the one who had the litter. The dad, his name is Blue, is Razor Edge and is very thick, big head. He scares people that don't know him. He is such a cuddly baby. He thinks he is a little lap dog, and tries to sit on our lap. Do you know of any webs or on this one, where to post free ads for the sale of the puppies. Can I put something on here? Good luck with your little puppy. Talk to you soon.

No, you can't post something on here.

Also, there is nothing special or rare about red nose pits, or blue pits, it's just a color if you didn't know that.

Hi, My Red nose seems to be like a red head human...Cassie has very sensitive skin and allergies. Ever hear of that. The vet told me to give her Benadryl. It seems to help her itchy skin.

Many pits tend to have allergies. Mine is allergic to pretty much every people food, and is on a low residue food. One piece of any thing other than his kibble and he's farting up a storm.

Natural Balance has good allergy formulas,(that's what mine is on)

Hang on a sec.. Pepper, you got a Pittie?

Four weeks was far too young to be taken away from the litter. Even if the mother has refused to feed them they can still learn bite inhibition from each other.

Yes, I got him on 4/18, he's 2
