Yes we did it before with 4 day old pups so we knew what we were getting into but I can assure you there's no queue of volunteers willing to give up their Christmas and new year to raise a pup they had no hand in producing. If you're going to rename it hand rearing from birth might be a better description.

The jumper was donated to Battersea and it's perfect for him.
