I have four pups right now and I was wondering if any one had any tips on raising them so they all will make 15 inch dogs. Both parents range 14-15 inch dogs. I been mixing Diamond puppy chow, 30/20 with Purina puppy chow and leaving feed by them. I been worming them out with Nemex wormer every week. I been keeping them up to date on shots and they are off the ground on kennel wire. Is there anything else I could do or give them? Thanks in advance!!!

Just feed them a quality feed for puppies (Purina Puppy Chow or Pro Plan). Feed them morning & evening, but not too much at one time. If you put too much weight on them, it could hurt their conformation. Don't let them get so full that their sides are bloated out. That's about all you can do other than regular wormings (every 2-3 weeks) & up to date vaccinations,; if their parents are 14-15", they should end up in that range also.
P.S. I don't like kenneling growing pups on wire. It could hurt their conformation (straight legs); try getting them on the ground somehow.
