Yakasimba Rhodesian Ridgeback

Puppies are one week old

During the first week, puppies are in the neonatal stage, relying on their mother for food, for warmth and stimulation

Puppies cannot hear or see and their movement is limited to a slow crawl.
The complete neonatal stage takes about four weeks.

Within the next week (usually day 10) the puppies’ eyes will open.
