| They're all here! All 7!! And they are (I think) ALL girls!! Juliet did SO awesome!! Labor was SOO quick, she had myself & my husband on our toes (at 4:44am!) that's for sure! She finished up by almost 6am! QUICK!! I was/am so proud of her, she's doing well with them!! The smallest is 5oz and the largest is 6.5oz! She did great! Question about the goat milk recipe after whelping...what if I can't find goats milk? Can I use evap milk? Thank you to everyone for all the help to all my endless questions!

really is best to use the goats milk ... it should be in cans right next to the evaporated milk

| Congratulations on your litter. Sounds like you have some good healthy sized pups.. WOW, that's a big job for Momma and you. You can use evaporated milk instead of goat's milk to supplement. Just search in Google for supplementing newborn puppies and you should get some recipes. I've had good luck with one part evaporated milk to one part boiled water+ touch of Karo syrup to supplement only - not as only source of nutrition. Good luck with your kids. |

| WOW, Congratulations.... good job for all of you. That was really quick. I know canned goats milk is over there someplace (my breeder from Honolulu used it with my Tiki), and I was able to get it on Maui at Safeway.

| Thanks Sandy! I'll see if I can find a Safeway near me! She's finally eating something too..mixed some cottage cheese, 1/2 boiled egg & yogurt with her food, and she's eating. Yay!

| Or make a few phone calls to all grocery stores near you and ask if they have it; I know driving around w/traffic can take up all your time. Goat's milk is pricey though, I think we paid over $5 per can. Glad she is eating, and it seems things are going really good for you!

Living My Yorkie Dream Donating Member | Congratulations to you and Juliet on her successful whelp of 7 healthy puppies. That is awesome that she did so well and so quickly. Hopefully with the start of those healthy weights they will all continue to do well. Just keep mom well fed with quality puppy food and the whelping pudding. Congrats again; looking forward to pictures of the big family!
