Puppy

Puppy

A puppy is a juvenile dog, generally one less than 12–18 months old. Puppies are markedly underdeveloped and dependent on their mothers at birth, but healthy puppies grow quickly and begin walking thereafter. Puppies generally weigh 250–450 grams shortly after birth, depending on the breed. A puppy's coat colour may change as the puppy grows older, as is commonly seen in breeds such as the Yorkshire Terrier. Puppy refers specifically to young dogs, while pup may be used for other animals such as wolves, seals, giraffes, guinea pigs, rats, or sharks.
