BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | Chicken Broth? I watched a whelping dvd last night and he gave his girl chicken broth while she was delivering for energy. He said it was better then water. What do you give? |

BANNED! | Vanilla Ice cream is awesome between puppies, as it gives them hydration, glucose for energy, and a calcium boost, will help the parathyroid gland to release a hormone from her bones, to help with muscles and pushing. |

| Molly had her pups 4 weeks ago and my vet said to give her chicken broth when she was delivering. She loved it and it helped her a lot. I then would put some on her food to entice her to eat. That worked also. |

I prefer the ice cream or the esbilac and egg combo. Last edited by tiggerr36792; 11-09-2007 at 10:41 AM. | |

I only gave her a little bit to try and help with contractions. Not much at all. | |

| You do have to watch the ice cream due to the sugar content and any artificial flavorings.

She sleeps in my room. I do have her whelping "quiet area" all ready and I have introduced her to it. Should she be sleeping in her whelping box at night? Also, what about giving them yogurt? I give Baby organic yogurt in the morning, about 1 1/2 TBS | |

| Yogurt is fine but again watch the sugar content. My gals sleep in their crates at night before whelping but are encouraged to nap in the whelping box during the day. You just want them to be comfortable there.
