Weighing newborn puppies on accurate and reliable digital scales, such as the Large Platform Scales, on a daily basis for the first 2 weeks of life is essential. We recommend that weighing is done at the same time each day, so that daily gain is accurately monitored. You can then easily see if the puppies are growing and gaining well, as well as notice early if a puppy is failing to gain, or dropping behind. Early detection can be life-saving.

To help track your puppies’ weights, you can use our Litter Birth and Litter Growth Records. These forms are free to download and are the perfect accessory to the Large Platform Scales.

As all our scales are digital and 1g accurate, they will not lock-in the weight. This means that the weight that the scales display will keep fluctuating as long as the puppy is moving. It is, therefore, easier to weigh a tired and still puppy, than one that is wriggling and moving.
